I thank God for my boys


My boys

Do you ever feel like you are seeing a person with a mini-version of himself? Pete and Bryan look so much alike to me sometimes. They have those big, dark eyes with long eye lashes, a sweet smile and they are both random, clever, hilarious and very charming. I am overjoyed to be hanging out with this great duo for a long while.

A phone-book


A man brought a package to our door. A phone book. This is the fun conversation I had with Aubrey.

Aubs: What is that?
Me: A phone book
Aubs: Like the one Grandad has?
Me: Yes sweety, I am sure he has one.
Aubs: Neat does it have games on it?
(a pause)
Me: OHHH, you are thinking of his iPad which looks like a large Phone and a Book sometimes. No, this book is not as cool as Grandads. It is just a plain book with people's names along with their phone numbers in it so we can look up people's phone numbers if we know their names.
Aubs: That means we can look up that girl in my dance class and ask her to come over and play with me.
Me: Well, we can certainly look her up. What is her name?
Aubs: I don't know, she never told me.
