For the Readers, From Carter

I know what you are all thinking. You are thinking that I, Carter, have been very under-represented on the blog lately (and Mom wonders why readership has been so low!). But, because I care about you, the reader, I have decided to take matters into my own hands. Perhaps you were thinking that there was not much to report, but on the contrary, I have been a very busy boy. As you can imagine, living with this family that I do, I have my hands full trying to teach and train them up. Which is why I joined the local Cub Scouts. I figure it is never too early to begin setting that example of good citizenship, and besides, girls are suckers for a man in uniform...

Along with my responsibilites to the community, I have also taken it upon myself to teach my dad a few things about the guitar. Dad really learns a lot from our little sessions together...


He especially likes this special technique...
He's not quite the natural that I am, but he'll get the hang of it.

Another thing I spend a lot of time doing is eating. I like to eat.
Sometimes, if I'm lucky, I find contraband. You know, the stuff Mom won't let me have. I've learned that the best place to find that is under the kitchen table. I've also learned that you have to act quick. If you find something good, you have to shove it all in, try to act natural and hope that Mom doesn't notice. I'm not sure what clued her in this time...
Just another shot of me with the guitar. I like to get in plenty of practice myself.

And, the latest development...



Wonder why they are all blurry? That's because I am too-fast-for-the-flash, yep, that's me.

Well, Mom says I have to go to bed now. Just wait till she sees all the great reviews this post gets, then she'll know what the readers really want...
Yep, that's me!
Signing off,
Carter

Carter, you are amazing! Not only can you walk, play guitar, eat like a fiend, now you type, insert pictures and create amusing commentary. What a wonder you are!

It took Jimi Hendrix a couple of years playing concerts before he started playing the guitar with his mouth. Just sayin'.

Oh I miss you. Not only are you reading novels but you can play guitar and be of service to your country. But I have to tell you that the one thing you are too young to do is walk. Slow down! You are still a baby :)

I love it!!! Carter is hilarious :) What a big kid! You should have gotten a pic of Steve trying out Carter's guitar teaching strategies - I would love to see how the mouth playing turned out :)

What a funny post! My blog has been a little (or a lot) under-represented lately too...maybe Carter will do a guest appearance on my blog! I can't believe your baby is walking!
