"I can't finish this, Mom..."
Picture
"Well, you know our rule about food....if you take it, then you need to eat it..."
Picture
"I know, but it just looked so good...."
Picture
"Well, maybe Shadow would be willing to help you out..."
Picture
Shadow was the family 'dog'.  He was actually a wolf.
Picture
 Lawrence had come across him on a hunting trip. Poachers had killed his whole family, and had left the lone little cub crying over his mother's body. So Lawrence took him home and raised him. At first he would run and hide in any dark corner, so Lawrence named him Shadow. Now that he was all grown, he was as gentle and loyal as any dog....
Picture
But Ringo still felt a little nervous approaching him....after all Shadow was almost as big as him..
Picture
"It's okay. He won't bite..."
Picture
Picture
So Ringo gathered up all his courage....
Picture
..and came around....
Picture
"Here boy....would you like this turkey leg?"
Picture
But Shadow could sense that Ringo was a little nervous, so just quietly sat where he was....
Picture
"It's okay boy...."
Picture
"...Mom said I could give it to you..."

A Gift for David

After the dinner, everyone gathered out on the terrace, so the staff could clear the table, and set up inside the great hall for dessert and dancing. Then Lawrence presented his son with a gift...
Picture
"We have a special gift for you..."
Picture
David was all excited....
Picture
Picture
Everyone was watching...
Picture
Picture
"It's from your Mother and me..."
Picture
Picture
"Oh wow!  Thank you!'
Picture
David wondered what it could be.....
Picture
He knew what he hoped it would be, and it was the right shape.....
Picture
He was almost too excited to open it....
Picture

A Junior Knight

David ripped open his gift...
Picture
"It's a sword!"
Picture
"Yes. I had it made specially for you.."
Picture
"Wow!  I love it!"
Picture
And he strapped it on right away....
Picture
David felt so proud....
Picture
Picture
"Our son is growing up so fast..."
Picture
Picture
David pulled his sword from the scabbard....
Picture
His Dad and uncles did the same...
Picture
"We have a new, young knight in the family!"
