Angelic
London, ON, December 2006 [Click to embiggen]

I love when our kids sleep. I admit I like to stare at them when they do.

Your turn: What's going on inside his head?

  4. He's dreaming of the big soccer game he'll play in the school yard, tomorrow, the video game he'll play when he wakes up...or playing with his puppy!

    You do realize this is the only time our youngest is ever still?

    That's really not true...how many times have gone in to check on him and he's at the opposite end of the bed!

    Gosh,he is delicious!

  7. Great photo. I wonder what he's dreaming?

    Just joined the WW parade for the first time. However, I seem to have fallen through a hole in the time-space continuum. My photo is clearly anchored in autumn.

  8. Well since it was taken in December, he must be thinking, "I hope Santa brings me that new bike."

    ReplyDelete
  15. excellent picture and filter effects. and yes, they are so angelic when asleep - and such devils when awake. but we love them just the same. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I also love to watch my girls sleep. So peaceful. - zzzz...what can I get into when I wake up. They think I am sleeping, but I am scheming...:)

  24. That is so perfect and precious. Sleeping boys have an air of innocence they often seem to be missing when awake--at least that is the case with my own.

    ReplyDelete
  25. That's an amazing shot. I must admit, I love to watch my kids sleep too - so much peace. I've never thought to photograph them though. Now I will!

    Happy WW!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I love it when our kids, especially our boys, sleep.

    Because they're not breaking anything!

    Cheers.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Awww....I think I have more pictures of my children asleep than anything else (especially the twins).

    I think he's flying through the air on his own power and surveying his kingdom.

    Thanks for the visit!

  29. He's planning his next great adventure!

    ReplyDelete
  30. i love pictures of babe's sleeping. when mine actually sleep I think it's the most peaceful thing I've seen!
    Happy WLW! :)

    re: the obit... unless you're desperate to get rid of the apartment, I'd probably ignore the request.. just pretend it didn't happen lol... don't usually do that sort of thing, or unless these people are known for their artful social skills (I know a few people who are naturally like that), than you take that into consideration.
    HTH's!

  31. I have so many pictures of my children sleeping. I just love to look at them when they are so still and peaceful, the rest of the time they are such balls of energy.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Oh Carmi he is precious I always loved to watch ours sleep too
    " Dad why are you watching me? Dad ? Dad? I guess you can't hear me? Must have something to do w/ age -- I wonder if you stop dreaming when you get older? I hope not --"

    ReplyDelete
  33. I love this puppy! If only this wasn't a dream... *wakes up* Hey Dad, can I have a puppy? puh-LEEEEZE????

  39. He looks so peaceful, that I'm guessing he's in deep sleep and nothing is going inside his head except for recharging for the next day.
    Thanks for sharing. :)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Thanks for stopping by Purs n' Snorts. Glad to make you smile ;) That is a cute child! He looks so relaxed, I think there's not a thought in his head. He's so peaceful.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I, too, love to watch my kiddos sleep.

    He's thinking...."Ahhh.... Spring.... Riding my bike..... Swinging.... Rollerskating.... Skateboards.... Soccer.... Baseball...."

    Blessings, Beckie :o)

  45. I am so glad to know I am not the only one who stares at their kids when they sleep. I just can't stop myself, either. I love this picture.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Is it my turn yet? :D

    What is going through his mind?
    Hmm...Maybe he is reviewing his day or dreaming of his next fishing trip...

    Happy WW

  48. Thanks for visiting and leaving such a wonderful comment on my 200th Post at Small Reflections. Once I’d written it I wasn’t sure I should share it as ‘Wordless Wednesday’ …(since it’s anything but), however I wanted to acknowledge all my ‘virtual’ friends and acquaintances and figured only those who had time (and/or cared) would do more than look at the image ;--)

    This photo is preciously priceless! Who knows what little boys dream of?

    I enjoyed the 'link' to your 'signs' photo too ;--)
    Hugs and blessings,

    Ok, he's dreaming Guitar Hero...

    Blue, blue, green, red, yellow, red, blue, red, green...Rock on!

    ReplyDelete
  55. What an amazing picture! What amazing adventures are going on behind that peaceful exterior?

    I stare at my kids when they sleep too. Even though they're so big now (12 and 10), I can see their baby faces when they're asleep.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Beautiful photo of a beautiful son.

    ReplyDelete
  57. I miss watching my oldest sleeping. She used to always have her mouth wide open, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I wish I could still sleep like that!

    Happy WW!

    ReplyDelete
  59. what a great photo..sweet dreams!

    ReplyDelete
  60. Carmi, when I look at this photo I just see pure innocence and love! Thanks for sharing it!

    ReplyDelete
  61. They return to angels in their sleep--no matter how old they get.

    I sometimes watch my thirteen-year old when she sleeps--just to remind myself of her innocence. Her rolling eyes and sarcastic mouth disappear into a baby's face once again--long eyelashes rest on rosy cheeks, eyebrows relaxed, mouth still.

    I should do it more often so I don't forget!

    ReplyDelete
  62. Ahhh, so serene and innocent. I love to watch my girl sleep.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Beautiful photo. I was reminded of The Neverending Story when I saw it. Do you think he is dreaming of riding big, white, fluffy, dragons?

    ReplyDelete
  64. Awesome picture--I think I'll go take a nap now. :)

    Thanks for stopping by to see my naked boy! Happy Wordless Wednesday.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Thanks for dropping by and checking out my WW. Love the picture of the sleeping child! I can relate!
    As for his thought.... "I'm NOT tired!"

    ReplyDelete
  66. I love it, it's so peaceful.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Whatever he's dreaming, he's dreaming he's the best at doing it - - great photo!

    ReplyDelete
  68. He looks like he's dreaming of something really peaceful - like swinging on a swing that hangs from the strong limb of a great big old tree. Beautiful picture!

    ReplyDelete
  69. Stunning photo of a stunning photographee. What's he thinking?

    "hope that Dad's got the camera put away for the night....coz the last thing I want is a picture of me asleep blasted on the internet...zzzzzzzzzzzzzz"

    ;-)

    Some of my favorite photos are of my boys asleep as well. I see I'm not alone; maybe a coffee table book in the making, SeƱor Levy?

    ReplyDelete
  70. What a sweet pic! I took one similar of my daughter recently but her cat was next to her.
    Thanks for coming by my blog today!

    ReplyDelete
  71. I'm not good at coming up with captions, but I did want to say what a sweet picture this is!

    ReplyDelete
  72. I have two boys, grown now, 20 and 21. When they were little, all they seemed to think about was how they could save the world. Their imagination and their world of warriors gave me lessons unimaginable. I love this photo, it brings me back to those days of little boys and the life of imaginations.

    ReplyDelete
  73. I think he's dreaming of "Snips and Snails, and Puppy Dog Tails".

    My Mother always said that when children sleep, they play with the Angels. I truly believe they do.

    My Dear Daughter is almost 24. She works nights, yesterday she came over after work and went to sleep in my bed. I peeked in on her, brushed her hair from her forehead and just gazed at how peaceful and beautiful she looked. Once again she appeared to be that very small child I stared at so many years ago. It was an unforgetable moment for me.
    Thank You for sharing your son with us. :-)
    Blessings,
    Kimmie

    ReplyDelete
  85. That is precious! I would say all kids look like angels when they sleep, but I once babysat for an 8 year old girl who slept with her eyes open. It totally freaked me out every time - especially the first time when I thought she was dead... 8-)

    ReplyDelete
  86. Man, I totally missed WW yesterday...crazy week. But this pictures is AWESOME. It just sings to the heart. Great capture.

    Hugs,
