Ready, Set, Grow!

What IS it about children that gives hope and inspires forgiveness and growth?

It is my hope that as these boys grow, they retain the light that I see in Wesley's eyes, and the motivation Boden shows as he tries to go mobile ....

Wesley's said: "When I grow up I want to go up into space and put another flag on the moon."


Boden is looking around for the next thing he wants to conquer/accomplish.


He found it (notice he sits up now ... usually with a little help).

Boden is ready to go (in style I might add ... that's a Be-bops wool diaper cover and a pair of coordinating Baby Legs leg warmers ). Watch out, world, this boy can roll and scoot his way around!


And THIS is the look of joy that radiates at every turn . I hope this look is with him every step of the way on his journey to realizing the inherent potential within him.

Oh my gosh you have the cutest boys! I love that Wes wants to be an astronaut. Brandon's latest aspiration is to become a doctor, but it changes a lot--a few weeks ago it was fireman. And once he said he wanted to be a dog when he grows up. LOL

I am both deeply nervous and excited to discover what my Talise will want to be when she grows up... :/
