Happy 5th Birthday Captain!

Tomorrow the Captain has a birthday that we have been celebrating all weekend and I didn't want to miss it here in the mess that will be tomorrow (otherwise known as Monday). Captain, how old did you say you were going to be?

Oh right, 5.

A high five!


Say goodbye.


Friends and family know where to get the details.

May This Always Be The Case

Tonight, as I watched the Artist and Engineer read books to their little bro, The Captain (and loving, as best as I can, all the chaos of that), I was thinking about all the talk about parent/children relationships. And while I hope we will always have a great relationship with our boys (or perhaps continue to cultivate one would be a better description), what I most hope is that these three are inseparable. Play, fight, whatever, I simply hope that these guys will always have each other's back.
