Sweet Extract

I feel badly for you folks in Montreal suffering through a cold and rainy weekend in August. Here on the other hand…

The boys spend a good part of their day in the living room, in a play pen. This is what it looks like from “the inside”.

On the right is the only man who ever surpassed Sebastian in the art of flirting. It’s a shame the boys will never see this master at work. Their abuelo could have taught them a thing or two, I’m sure.
