One who stayed behind

As for Kalib, as the time for him to leave for home drew near he proclaimed, "I'm staying. Got it?!" As it turned out, he has no school tomorrow. So he stayed. And that's all for today.

Something mysterious and unknown up in the bare branches

When I came home from photographing the live moose and then the dead moose, I found a copper moose standing on my front porch along with three boys who poured out the door to greet me. I had not seen them since the beginning of the week, but their mom had brought Margie home from babysitting and they had come along."What's that?" Kalib shouted, pointing up into the branches. I looked up, half expecting to see the same eagle I had seen down at the river but all I saw was bare tree branches. 

Note: As I took this picture at home near my computer, I bypassed the Squarespace app due to all the problems, headaches, delays and wasted time Squarespace has been inflicting upon me. It should be noted, however, that doing it this way takes considerable more time than it takes with the app - when the app actually works.

Reluctant departure, part four: his grandmother's arms

Finally, Kalib was persuaded to get up from the bed and head for the door. Just before he reached it, he spotted his grandmother and detoured into her arms. If everyone could see how much he loved her and wanted to stay with her, then surely he would be granted one more night in her house.

Reluctant departure, part three: sleep becomes a tactic

Kalib got up, but instead of turning towards the outside side door he headed toward grandma and grandpa's room and climbed into the big bed. "I need to get a rest," he said again. He pulled the blanket up and then fell to sleep in an instant! Surely, no one could demand a sleeping boy to get up, leave his grandma and grandpa's house and go to Anchorage.
