Gusto

With gusto, he does everything.
He crashes cars on the coffee table and performs acrobatic maneuvers in his ottoman dismount.
He drinks milk like the Jeep guzzles gasoline and gobbles food as if famine may soon sweep through the house.
He carries important things from room to room, like balls and vacuum hose attachments, in his hands or in his mouth, and offers to share only his least favorite items.
He waves wildly at friends and strangers alike with the kind of exuberant greeting that makes everyone glad to be acknowledged.
He initiates games of peek-a-boo and supervises phone calling and channel changing.
He demonstrates fierce opposition to the word "No."
He does everything he can, and tries everything he can't, with gusto.

I think your husband may object to Tuck wearing that outfit "in public." With gusto.

P.S. Kate Baby is correct...he should not be wearing Michigan colors...even "in private." That's one of the reasons we don't let Grandma Sandy dress herself.
