Jumping Bean

This picture is Merrick in a nutshell. A shaggy-haired, small-built blur of motion, who'd prefer to be half-dressed. He makes a mess of my bed jumping on it...but does it with such gusto that I can't find it in myself to tell him to stop.
When I first took this shot I decided I was going to delete it...I didn't think it was all that great. He's blurry, the window was too bright, etc. But my husband saw it and laughed, and said that it was fitting of Merrick. So I decided to keep it. I guess I'll keep Merrick, too, while I'm at it. ;)

This week at i ♥ faces the theme was "Jump for Joy". Check out their site for more great photos and blogs.
