The Joy of Sons

Yesterday's forecast was all wrong. Because the forecaster's were way off base, the boys enjoyed some time out in the backyard again. They played with dirt, with golf clubs, with guns, with sticks... and then paused for this wonderful photo.











Today at lunch Drew looked at me, got a smile on his face and said, "Mom, you're so beautiful." Melted my heart!!

A few minutes later he excused himself to go get some yogurt. Since we have that annoying wall between the kitchen and dining room, I couldn't see what he was doing. However, I heard a bunch of silverware being jostled around. I asked what was going on and he told me that he had decided to clean out the dishwasher for me. Sure enough, he had put away all of the silverware and had the stepladder out so that he could put away the rest of the clean dishes.










Not to be outdone, Nick decided he wanted to help too. So he took on the official job of handing the clean dishes to Drew.


The whole thing was so cute and so sweet. What awesome boys I have!
