"The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow-- Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow; For he sometimes shoots up taller like an india-rubber ball, And he sometimes goes so little that there's none of him at all."
Interesting description indeed and it recalls me one funny game that almost every children plays it which is “Hand Shadows to Be Thrown upon the Wall”.
I am sure you had taught your children to play it when they’re young, rite?

Whoaaaa... weird? not really.. it's unique :)
You mean you're NOT an elegant lady with long legs?
;-) (wink on)(WINK ON!)
Thanks guys. Each shadow is unique of course which belongs to someone’s own.
My one is a weird unique one. Actually I am quiet stout with short legs, that’s why I said it turns out a weird shadow, but I like it.
Fun shot. I like it.

That's a nice picture, PP. It's very artistic - sort of a self-portrait in shadow.
PandaB, that brings back memories. Thanks. We used to read poetry in school.
Happy Valentine's Day, Everyone.
I don't recall PP. I suppose I did show them bird and rabbit shadows.
Gong Xi Fa Cai, P.P.!!!!
(Did I get that right...?)
