Today the House of LFM celebrates the eighth natal day of middle Son Lukas! Above you see the strapping lad he has thus far grown to be, and I would offer that image in comparison to this one taken on the day of his birth …
Fresh Son, straight from the womb. The delighted look on Diana’s face belies the presence of the surgical team busily sewing up the portal in her belly that’s big enough to haul all 7 pounds and 13 ounces of Lukas through.
Not to put too fine a point on it, you can see by even a cursory examination of these two photographs how a mere eight years as part of this family can age a Man. At least until puberty at which point it just keeps making you better looking.
Now take a gander at this small sampling of celebratory eye candy from yesterday’s adventure, and join us — Happy Birthday Lukas!

In the bow watch position we have Maksim, bugs on his teeth and wind in his hair! (Mrs. LFM photo – click to enbiggen)
Right behind him, at the bow paddle, is the Superb Mrs. LFM herself in all her primal beauty, hatchet earrings and all! (Mrs. LFM photo – click to enbiggen)

Lukas is gifted with the Hunter’s eye, and here he’s seen practicing it in the wild on Ell Island in Kejimkujik Lake. (Mrs. LFM photo – click to enbiggen)

A great day to be sure! Happy Birthday Lukas, and Happy Fathers Day Randy.
