I DID it!

   This is an expressive portrait of a man who's awfully pleased with himself!  Barbara loved achieving the expression of little-boy pleasure in a grown man.  We have all had that child-like feeling inside of pride when we accomplish something that in our own little world was a big deal.  Such an inside feeling often isn't allowed to creep into our outward demeanor, though, at least not in public, because of a different kind of pride that often censors such displays.  It's a shame.  It's a pleasure, though, to encounter people who "let it all hang out".  It makes us smile.
