    This photo tells more than carefree. It shows a journey of a little boy that has visions of a destination. AND not a care in the world. Love it!

       Tomorrow this little boy of ours turns four, and he still loves exploring South Africa’s beautiful natural places every bit as much (it’s just harder for his parents to keep up sometimes…)

    I like how the steps are all over the place. The journey being just as important as the destination.
