As you wish...

Rik took the boys to school this morning, like he does every morning that he works the dreaded 3pm to midnight shift (thank you Rik). After dropping Boris off first at 7:35am he and Spike went for a drive to pass the time until Spike's school opened (8:30am). As they were driving along Spike was gazing out the window of the car and saw a single red flower.
"I wish I could pick that flower for Mommy," said Spike.
"How about you draw one instead?" replied Rik
"OK!"
So, as soon as they got to Beehive, Spike ran inside, sat down at the 'cutting' table and began to draw the flower you see below!
I think I can speak for all of us when I say, "Wow, Spike! That's amazing!"
Every time I hug my kids, I squeeze pretty hard (who doesn't?), but this one (as many do) had an extra big one, right in the middle!
There is only one Spike, and he's mine!

That is just about the most awesome red flower I have ever seen!

Spike really is special. I still remember holding him when you guys first brought him home -- the first newborn I'd ever held.
