For Father's Day

Awww......many reminders lately of where one's priorities should be.  From a list of things Dads want for Father's Day, someone posted this:

I would like nothing better than to hold my oldest son.They way that I did when he was three and we read books together…Just one more time."
I'm glad my kids are still that small.

Delayed present

Claire found this set of construction utensils that she had bought for one of the boys for either a birthday or Christmas (she doesn't remember) and gave them to me last night. Since she didn't remember, I told the boys they were for them to share. I did not anticipate Leanna's reaction-she got very upset that she didn't get a present too. I explained that this was not something extra, but a previous present. It didn't help. Justin and Timothy were thrilled. Timothy promptly asked for cereal to use the spoon. They each slept holding their silverware. They are really adorable. And I checked out their website, they do make a pink version for girls.
