A new generation of hero is born...

I know I already posted a shot for today, but I just had to blog this one too.


After dinner, we plugged in my ipod and jammed some Van Halen, Iron Maiden, and Metallica over
the stereo. Eli LOVES hard rock/heavy metal. He was dancing along so the songs with his crazy
little dance, when one of the GH guitars that was leaning up against the wall, tipped over.


Now Eli has a decent case of OCD and he just was not going to let us leave that guitar tipped
over. When i went to pick it up, I thought I'd put it on him.


We had to tie the strap in a knot behind his back so that it wasn't hanging at his knees,
but as soon as it was in the proper position, his left hand cradled the frets and the right
went down to the strum bar. He's been watching us enough, he knows how it goes.


Of course I didn't have the camera ready. It was nearby, but I had brought the memory card
downstairs to upload my pad shot. So I rushed down to get it and popped on the flash.


When I came back up he was dancing around with it like a true rockstar. You've never seen a daddy so proud. :)

He was born to run". Or something like that. He is such a sweetie. He's going to be some thing else. Three kids, 3 different personalities. And this one is a corker!!!
