Hmmm no kids of my own. (Thank FSM) Have a picture of my soon-to-be math professor brother.

[Sandra Craft]

Is this a recent picture?  As math professors go, he looks a little . . . young.

[Buddy]

This was taken last year. And he has one more year of college to go before he graduates. He is actually 21 in this picture. He's always had a baby face.

OMA Juliet, your son is ADORABLE.  Those cheeks!  Nomnomnom

Budhorse - your brother definitely looks young to be a professor. 

[Buddy]

Eh, he's happy, and I'm not complaining. My math grades have actually gone up since he started tutoring me. 

[Stevil]

Okay, since everyone is posting pictures of the adorable children in their lives...

Aren't we all the doting parents, just looking for whatever excuse we can to show our our little loved ones?

I never used to be interested in kiddie pix until I had some of my own, now I know why everyone gets so excited.

Guardian - You do look like you're praying to some sort of Beer God in that shot.  Is that green beer?

That is in fact an irish celebratory beer on St.Paddys'. Actually just Heineken with food dye, but still fun. Made my teeth green, though.

@ DJ Awwwww so cute!

@ Buddy Aww not quite as cute, but definitly a baby face. I bet he gets 'carded' in bars a lot?

[Siz]

OK, I've finally decided to reveal myself. Here's me and the family.

D'ahhhh, lovely!

You've lost all your evil now St.

I know. I did up an album of wee man's first year and whenever we have people over, we're always like "WANNA SEE OUR SON'S PICTUREZ?!"
Before we had him, I never in a million years thought that'd be something I'd do.

Å has the sound value of o

Close. Put a little more force on the å and say it a fraction slower.
