Elijah designed and made this mask at Peats Ridge Festival with very little help. I did the tricky cutting (like the eyes) and operated the hot glue gun. He did everything else.

Awesome photo. And holy cow, he's getting so big!

Yeah, he'll be 6 in a few months. Scary how fast he's growing up. He's only 38cm shorter than I am.

I didn't recognize him at first, the lighting makes his hair look a little less vibrant!

James is about 18 inches shorter than I am, and growing every day. I always knew smart money was on him being taller than me (Jim is 6'4" and all...) but I figured I had at least until puberty. Nope. At this track, I've got until about third grade. :/

38cm is just under 15 inches so yeah, he's going to be a beanpole like his daddy. We're under a blue tarp (camping) so that's why the lighting is funny. I did actually adjust the colour temperature and contrast on the photo as well, as the original was totally blue!

awwww he's a smart cookie!

It's a design fault they have panic before you know were you are they're taller than you are.

My youngest over took me height wise a few years ago now, it's only myself and our daughter that are vertically challenged now in our house. Never mind, small people have powerful personalities

Well done to Elijah on his mask. It's cool!
