A pencil drawing of my nephew on Christmas day 1996.For those of you who don't recognize the toy,it is called a sit and spin.By turning the top wheel a child could spin as fast as they turned.A simple toy that gave many hours of fun to a little boy.I remember him spending most of the day on it and laughing with pure unadulterated joy.He is seventeen now, and life has taken a lot of that joy away from him,but once in a while i still see a little of that innocent happy little boy in his face and hear it in his laughter.
