Freckles!

One of my favorite things about summer vacation is the effect of the sun on my boy's complexion. Despite slathering him with gallons of SPF 50 sunscreen, a few UV rays still manage to hit their mark. The result is amazing.

The beautiful milky white color of the boy's skin has remained unchanged. What I really love are the countless freckles that now cover his sweet little face and arms. I think it's adorable.

The boy doesn't seem to mind his freckles, at least for now. He has, however, voiced one small concern. As I was putting him to be last night, he asked, "Do you think my freckles will get so thick that it looks like a big brown smudge of my face? I don't want a big smudge. It would be really embarrassing."

It may not matter either way. If any more freckles appear, I may gobble my boy up in one single bite. He is so stinkin' cute.
