Good Big Brother

Just a few days ago, Ben brought home this card he had made for his brother while he was in the hospital.

I think it's beautiful. He had most of the teachers in the school sign it. I imagine it got lost on someone's desk, and that's why it came home just now.

I love the "YAY, I CAN RUN WITH EVERYONE!", and how he sectioned off areas for each grade to sign. It's very well planned and thoughtful. Ben is a sweetie.

Special Visitors and Friends

Sam had a couple of special visitors at school this month. Ms. Alicia and Ms. Marisa from the Early Childhood Center where Sam attended two years of preschool. These are two of his VERY favorite people from his preschool years, and two of mine as well! They made a visit to observe the Bridges program which Sam is a part of, and they sent me this pictures afterward. I wish I could have seen his face when they arrived!


And this is Jake G., Sam's friend. Jake loves Sam, and Sam loves Jake. We have had a few play dates, which isn't something that has happened much for Sam. They are great friends and LOVE to be together. They were being scientists on this day...can you tell? Love it!

I Love You Too!

Ben is the early bird at our house. He wakes up about a half hour before anyone else. This is what I woke up to one recent morning. Embellished and everything! It's aluminum foil, which he will sculpt with whenever I'll let him.

Yay Zoe!

Officer Training

Here he is... Lieutenant Beers. :-) Rob is spending an intense month in Rhode Island at officer training. PT, marching, inspections, tests, chow, and very little free time. That's about all I know. Except that he's dead tired at the end of each day.
Miss you, babe.

Spring Break

The boys and I visited Grandma and Grandpa Mundy for Spring Break. We had a great time. We visited Fort de Chartres near their home in Illinois. This place is like a life size play house! There are things to climb up onto, run around on, climb down into, etc. I think the boys would have played there all day.

Playing dead. Might as well, it's a fort.

Ben is down in a cellar here. He climbed everywhere.
