freshwater shark

When Dennis outgrew his infant life jacket, we found him a super cute one in the next size. It features big eyes on the front and a dorsal fin on the back. Today he realized the merits of that particular feature. He began swimming face down toward us, and pretty soon he was instructing us all to sing the Jaws theme and insisting that someone hold up his dorsal fin. He would delightedly attack us (thankfully without teeth) and much giggling would ensue. He was the terror of Lake Mitchell today (well him and those nasty little fish that attack our freckles and moles). He and Chloe found much mischief to share, much arguing to accomplish, much trouble to get into. They had a fun day for sure!

When he wasn't sharking around, he was a aqua superhero. He swam up to Allison and Gran a couple of times and asked "excuse me, ma'am, are you having some trouble?" or "do you need some assistance?" and once asked "are you having an argue?" (argument?) to Chloe and Dave! He's such a little character these days.
