Ezra

This in my nephew Ezra.

My brother stopped by tonight to move our porter over to a new container for the second stage of fermentation, and Kareah and Ezra were hanging out with us while we took the hour or so to sanitize everything and complete the transfer. I had such a good time. Caught up with Kareah about a few things........talked beer with Heath while we discussed how good this porter would be in another month.........but better than anything else was when Ezra grew restless and Kareah asked me to hold him for awhile while she took care of some things on the computer. This was unfortunate for Heath as it left him cleaning up most of the brewing equipment by himself but it turned out to be a great time for me, and hopefully Ezra.

I haven't gotten to develop much of a relationship with Ezra yet, mostly because he is so little and not really into the "Uncle Timmy" phase of his life where I get to watch him and wrestle him like I do with Corban and Chloe, but I think we had a good time tonight. I held him for probably twenty minutes or so and as he crawled all over me we sang and danced and tickled and just had a good old time. I felt like he finally recognized me and had that "this guy is OK" moment. So, this picture was a photo Kareah took while I was holding him, and it is my new desktop background.
