Ok, So Maybe he Won't Grow up to be a Doctor

Benjamin's maternal grandparents gave him some Mr. Potato Head toys;  I think they're called "Spud Buds", which would be appropriate.  He's good at the dismembering part, not so good at the reassembling part.

 

Getting the various limbs and body parts into their correct locations is tough.  But look at the concentration. Look at the focus.



Meet Mr. Horribly Disfigured Potato Head.
















"How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe, or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care I had endeavored to perform?"

  1. Hold it, hold it hold it! Let's not jump to premature conclusions (mature conclusion-jumping, O.K.).
    Maybe performing plastic/reconstructive surgery is not in Benjamin's future, but he could become a pathologist! They really don't care whether stuff gets put back where it belongs. What cadaver needs a pureed brain anyway? "Blimey! This liver looks like a haggis! Well, in the dumpster with it."; etc., etc. ...

  2. My Grandson is just paying homage to the new Speaker of the House (to be), John "Boner," by making a likeness of him (note the overdone tan.) Actually, this looks better than the new Speaker!
