Games and Faces

Grandma Dortha got Josiah this lion mane and mask. He loves it--especially on other people who are willing to dress up as the lion and pretend to get him, or eat the "food" he throws them (usually stuffed animals and matchbox cars).

Here's Aunt Hannah the lioness:

 

And the Daddy Lion in his den . . .

Josiah wasn't actually too thrilled to be caught. He loved the game, but it was a little too real for him. When Daddy pulled him into the den with a growl, he started crying. He was much happier to chuck "food" to the lion and run away. He was happy to sacrifice his cars (one of which gave Daddy a bad bruise), stuffed animals, and even his doll "Baby Abby" to the lion.

And to cap off the post, here are a couple of Josiah's signature faces--first his "cheesy smile" and second his "happy face" (the latter which is much funnier in person).
