july 4th snapshots

this is elijah's expression for the better part of 20 minutes after the fireworks started. to say that he was transfixed would be an understatement. mrs k help her hands over the little guys ears, and his eyes darted to and fro with the flashing, booming light and sound show. a couple of times, he laughed hysterically and clapped, only to fall back into this state of awe. i watched him more than i watched the fireworks, because i've seen 50 fireworks shows in my life, but i'll only get to see this once.
