It’s kind of a belts and suspenders deal–a ribbon with a medal AND a trophy. The winnie the pooh umbrella is kind of bizarre since he’s not three. And what’s with the stained glass affect coming off from the right? Is God approving or disapproving?
This was a pitch for a new show ala “Toddlers and Tiara’s” : it’s working title was “Uber squirts and Umbrellas”. Needless to say they didn’t pick it up for syndication.
I’m singin’ in the rain, I’m singin’ in the rain,
But this trophy is so small,
I find it an awkward pain,
But I’m singin’, singin’, singin’ in the rain.
i think i just realized two possible story lines for the photo: A.so the kid is all awesome and cool with his medal. he’s walking through a dark stormy forest, which you can tell by the photo’s background (which explains for the umbrella).. all of a sudden, because he is so awesome, the clouds part and a trophy is beamed down for him because he cant just walk around with a medal, and he’s all like ‘Wow! Cool! A trophy for me?!..’
the awkwardness comes from the ray of sunshine not matching up with the position of the trophy.
or B: he is walking through the dark stormy forest and the beam of sunshine actually directs him to the trophy, and thats why its not shinning directly on it.
Haha… ya know. This wouldn’t be near as hilarious, if it wasn’t for the “old-timey” pooh bear umbrella, and the stain glass effect. But what REALLY makes the picture, is the pose he’s in.=]
I mean, this picture just screams “PUT ME IN A BROADWAY PRODUCTION OF SINGING IN THE RAIN…WITH THE OLD SCHOOL POOH BEAR!”
Agreed. In an attempt to shed some light on this photo (pun not intended, but wtf) I kept enlarging it. If I’m not mistaken, the trophy (which is awfully hard to see) features the comedy/drama masks. So it seems as if (big surprise) this kid got an award for acting. Perhaps the “stained glass” light effect is supposed to be a theater spotlight?

A hat AND an umbrella.. inside?
Awkward? Yes. Awesome? Yes, yes, yes!
I love this boys confidence and I love that his parents are proud of him. I want to give them all a hug and a high five!
Agreed!!
Third
fourth!
Fifth!
Should I be disturbed that I actually have that winnie the pooh umbrella?
Oh heck no! Use it with pride, or double what you paid for it on eBay. Either way, it spells W-I-N!
I have that umbrella too!
I WANT that umbrella!
I have one too!
i have a mini version for babies of that umbrella…jealous?
Umbrellas have babies?
this is awkward but really cute actually
Makes you wonder what the trophy is for – maybe it’s his rendition of singing in the rain. I hope so.

God clearly approves.
This is the photo your mother drags out 5 years later to show your new hot girlfriend how cute you were.
Maybe he won an award playing Christopher Robin or something… or not.
I carry my trophies around everywhere I go too.
We should grab some lunch sometime.
Table for 4 you know.
Me you and our trophies.

Oh dear dear dear dear ….
This kid is ultrrrra-cool! So much confidence
I thought when you were THIS cool, you had to wear shades…..but I suppose a parasol will do in a pinch…
oh man, lol, you’re totally right. but i think that awesome hat and those black reboks totally make up for the lack of shades..
It is Bobby from King of the Hill! Awesome!
That was my first thought, exactly! Go Bobby!
I’m singin’ in the rain, I’m singin’ in the rain,

I like this kid. Cool and confident.
Look no tightrope
Haha, I love this picture!! He is sooo funny.
Champion what?

He is the living incarnation of Bobby Hill!!!!!
everyone feels like this on the inside
somewhere, a photographer actually said “Now, hold that pose.”
Wow. It’s like “Newsies” meets “Singing in the Rain” meets Scripps Spelling Bee. Truly marvelous to behold. Thank you.
Silly boy, don’t you know it’s bad luck to open an umbrella indoor?
Is he receiving the mary poppins man of the year award?
“raindrops keep fallin’ on my head”
mickey mouse club auditions?

Omg this dude is in my science class!!!!
Anyone who makes fun of him later won’t be allowed under his umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh-eh, under his umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh-eh-eh when it’s raining.
I love the way he is holding the umbrella only with his thumb
just…just… why?
I kinda wanna high five him.

He got that trophy for being so cool.
I think the “stained glass” effect is actually supposed to be “wind” blowing this sweetie and his umbrella off the stage.
