When we went to our son Richard’s law school graduation last month, his little Parker did a doubletake, studying us intently and then breaking into a grin that got huge when we spoke–that WAS the Skype people! Cool!

Today he saw our faces on the screen and he knew exactly who we were and that we were real. We had a great time playing with him, clapping with him, cheering him on and even got a “Hi” and “Bye”!

Seventeen months. Next thing you know he’ll be on the soccer team.

Here’s him riding with his cousin coming up close behind. (Go for the nose, kid, and your dad cuts off the video quick.) We think he’s cute.
