This guy on the left keeps me crackin’ up. That’s my Wild Man. (Blurry photo as I try to sneak up on them.)
The guy on the right keeps me crackin’ up. That’s his sidekick, Mr. Drama.
They have a ball together and could talk all the legs off a centipede. They could power a small country with jaw movement alone. They regularly injure one another in wrestling matches trying to establish who is dumb and who is dumber. Right now, it’s a tie.
They’re killin’ time here between performances in a production.
At least they weren’t killing each other.
The Wild Man has one wrist in a brace and an injured thumb on the other side after the smack down a few days ago.
Yep, it’s good to be fourteen, heavy on testosterone and energy, light on gray matter. Hopefully, this will balance out when he gets older.
Probably around 75.

Hilarious! What I wouldn't give to witness this exchange in person... I am sure its entertaining to watch! Have I mentioned what a handsome young man that wild man is? I'd say he bears a strong resemblance to his pretty momma! "... heavy on testosterone and energy, light on gray matter," such a great line!
ReplyDeleteLoved your gray matter line....so so true of that age bracket.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm not sure if it really every balances out....experience speaking here having had 4 boys and they are supposedly all grown up now!!
Two handsome young guys that are going to melt the hearts of the girls one day if they haven't already with those cute smiles!
P.S......by the way wild man in last photo and your Just Me Profile picture...spittin image of his mama!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot! Too funny. :) (I love it!)
ReplyDeleteHee hee! I dunno, my husband and my cousin gleefully beat on each other every time we get together. It's a guy thing. :-)
ReplyDeleteHilarious expressions on their faces - they look like mischievous gnomes!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures! They made me smile huge!! I love kids and their exchanges!!
ReplyDeleteBut I just had to add that...OMGoodness, he looks just like you!!
"Dude....!"
ReplyDeleteI still have a smile on my face from this post. It reminds me of my 15 year old grandson in action. Boys that age can be trying and testy, but in the light hearted moments they are pure joy to watch. And you are right - it doesn't change much - even as they age.
ReplyDeleteYes, Robynn, WM is the spitting image of you. What a great series of pictures, and I especially love the last one, both for the evil look at the smile. They are a handful, I'm sure. And the gray matter line is vintage Robynn!!
ReplyDeleteHow funny! As a retired educator this Ozarks farm chick says your right on the money. Heeeheeehe. Heavy on the testosterone and light on gray matter! They both look quite animated and fully entertaining.
ReplyDeleteAs we say down here in the Missouri hills and hollers, ya'll have a wonderfully blessed day!!!
Seems like they have a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted thank you sooo much for visiting my blog and leaving a sweet comment. Most of my post are titled with an oldies song. There kinda' like me old but classic!!!
ReplyDeleteIn the words of Granny Clampett, "ya'll come back now, ya hear!"
God bless......
LOL!! They look like best friends ever, and boy does your son look like you Robynn!
ReplyDeleteThose expressions on their faces! Especially that last photo! Still has me crackin up:) I think I'll go back and look again! Thanks for the smiles today!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove it :-p
ReplyDeleteAre you sure he's your kid? Kidding.. he looks just like you!!!
ReplyDeleteBoy howdy! Does that boy look like his Mama, or what?!? What a great set of photos, and it would be great to catch them at moments just like this in the years to come, wouldn't it?
ReplyDeleteThe last one is a complete and total hoot, and it's got me grinning from ear to ear!
You're blessed, woman... BLESSED!
You guys are a crack up! I have to tell you, I think he resembles me somewhat but most people say he looks exACTly like his dad. You guys are good for me! Maybe I really AM his mother!
ReplyDeleteOh how fun!! Great pics!! You must be a good sneaker-upper-on. They sure enjoy each other!
ReplyDeleteHey, I'm still waiting on my just about 25 year old to get a better balance of testosterone and grey matter. Just sayin'. Some of the others might be approaching equilibrium, but I wouldn't swear to that under oath.
ReplyDeleteAw Robynn those photos are priceless...thank you for sharing them with us...they had me chuckling as I scrolled down the page!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome fellow your Wild Man is...but then he looks a great deal like his pretty Mom... :0)
Cheers
These pictures are fabulous Robynn!! I sure do love our little "sharp dressed man". (Well, technically, not so little any more, huh? :O)
ReplyDeleteHaving raised two boys myself I really laughing at this post. So true,... so true!
ReplyDeleteAh! The joys of being young. You captured it so very well.
ReplyDeleteAt my very advanced age it is delightful to see the promise of youth and know these young people will be taking my place someday.

Love these pictures and how perfectly you captured the 14 year old boy phase! And really just like every age your children hit, I'm sure they are precious, priceless, tons of fun and occasionally really annoying!
ReplyDeleteYou are a fantastic photographer, Robynn...catching these two highly entertaining young men in action was no small feat!!! And your commentary is hilarious as usual!!! It is easy to see that the Wild Man has his mother's sense of humor!!!! Such a wonderful Mom! Such a fabulous family!!! Loved this little glimpse into your life!!! Love you! Janine XO
ReplyDeleteThat is so fun--just seeing a couple teenagers having a good time together!
ReplyDeleteYour son looks just like you! What a good-looking young man! :-)
You know, in that last pic... yeah, the shape of your son's eyes, I see you a bit... but, from what I recall of a pic of your husband, I see a grizzly bear cub. It's in that pic, I see more of a young man ..if that makes any sense.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to read stuff like this... then, perhaps, I might be better prepared ....on second thought ...Ha! HOW can one prepare!?!
:-)
Funny post! His sidekick looks like a hoot, too!
ReplyDeleteI had a friend that had two sons... she figured if you buried them around fourteen (puberty time) then dug them up about thirty they might, just might resemble a member of the human race.
ReplyDeleteLove you!
