Thanks for all the comments and votes. For those who are interested this is the bokeh created by some christmas lights that were coming from near my son to my left hand (yes, I put my left hand just on the right side of the camera). I positioned Lucas so the lights would appear going out of his mouth and coming toward the camera. Lighting on Lucas is a single speedlite and a reflector. The title unfortunatelly stayed wrong until the first 32 votes due to a bug on the site. Then finally they fixed it. The title is a reference to what the wolf says to the pigs before trying to destroy their houses on the 3 pigs fabule. Hence the angry expression of Lucas.
Canon 5d mk Ii
Tamron 90mm f2.8

Editing was minimal.

This should have been the winner.
Not only is there nice bokeh, it was the best idea in the entire challenge.

I really like the concept of the foreground bokeh being bubbles that are blown by the boy. Since half of his mouth is cropped out it's not completely clear that that was what you were trying to convey. I would prefer just a little bit more of his face (especially the mouth) be included.
