[Note to reader: This is a very overdue Mothers' and Fathers' Day post!]
We are blessed to have two beautiful boys who fill our lives
with life and laughter. And there are days when we just shake our heads
counting the minutes until bedtime.
Besides the Mothers’ Day Tea I enjoyed with Isaac, the boys made
the actual day very special. They created and decorated a sign for me, picked
out the perfect shirt for me (an Angry Birds shirt so that I would not be left
out), and took me to the zoo for the afternoon.

For Fathers’ Day we just spent the day relaxing. We intended
to take Paul to Phil’s BBQ (his favorite restaurant) but switched to Red Robin
when we saw how long the line was. The boys made a sign for him with me and
Camille (though I forgot to get a picture of it) and helped him open his
presents—so helpful that he did not even have to pull off any of the paper on
his gifts (a wallet, new Padres shirt and his favorite snacks).

It is a joy to be Mom and Dad to Isaac and Caleb. Some days
are calm and normal while many others have moments where we cannot keep up with
them thanks to the surprises that come with two boys and their own
personalities. We thank our Heavenly Father for the gift he gave us in them!
