Where is it?

There is a great picture window in Alexander's playroom. Very rarely does Naked Boy make an appearance but when he does, he certainly takes advantage of the moment. For some reason, Alexander really enjoyed standing in the picture window on this night. It's a bubble window with a foot wide frame for him to stand on and he has always been fascinated by this window. As I write this, I am flooded with memories of the past year and a half - from laying on the floor together and looking out the window when he was a baby, when he just began walking and would pull himself up to look out the window, piling toys on the frame once he could reach the window, and now he's tall enough to climb up to it. This window is our version of a growth chart.

If you look closely on Alexander's back, the light reflects like angel wings. This picture makes me wonder if he has seen his guardian angel and in this moment, Alexander is not aware that the angel sits on his shoulder.
