Maybe he'll be a pilot

Recently, Joshua has been flying an imaginary plane -- in the sink.



I have to admit that I am impressed by his creativity. The faucet knobs are his controls, the drain stopper his flightstick, and the nightlight next to the sinks is his fuel light. He imagines elaborate scenarios; needing to refuel while trying to maintain control of the plane, fighting with other planes, etc.



It wasn't until we went to the Air & Space Museum at Balboa Park on the free Tuesday that I began to notice a trend...





Notice the look of intensity on his face in each of the photos. That was "seat of his pants" flying, complete with sound effects, of course. Anyway, what a fun new phase!

And here's a picture of the boys playing in the fountain at beautiful Balboa Park. I love San Diego!
