Mini Meaksy


Enough said, Mini Meaksy's Shirt says it all haha



The little fella loves getting on the boog and trying to be just like daddy, check out his style complete with crossed legs.....and sandwich!?

I am so looking forward to this summer, hopefully i can get mini meaksy his first wave. We've been practicing together at home and he's seen it on the TV so hopefully he has the idea. Although he is not quite two yet so I'm not expecting too much obviously.

Just as my dad instilled his love for fishing in me, i hope to one day share the delights of riding a piece of foam with my son. I think the first time we go out together and i see his stoke from getting his first wave by himself will definitely be one of those images that you carry with you to your last breath. An eternal source of joy that bubbles uncontrollably to the surface whenever you think of it, and makes you smile even in your darkest moments. I remember my first fishing trip with just me and dad and his dad. We caught plenty of trout and to date, the biggest trout I've ever caught was on this trip, I think i was 9 years old, but i can still remember it so vividly.

Not that it matters if he doesn't want to bodyboard when he is older. I'd never force him into anything but i have to admit, that i harbour a not so secret desire to be able to share this with him. I guess its almost like an insurance, that i want to be able to share something that i know will allow us to spend time together. Only time will tell, and if its not bodyboarding then I'm sure it will be something else. Cant wait to see how the little champ grows up, but for now i am more than content with my crazy, funny and adorable son.
