The best way to see Aaron lately is to meet him for lunch at the park (or an occasional Friday night dinner next to his office.) Today we hit Sunset Park with a big lake and lots of fishermen. We basked in the sun and filled up our happy canteens. The kids ran wild while Aaron and I got caught up on life... (the weekend is never enough.) At one point during the conversation, Aaron turned to me and said, "Isn't having a family awesome?" Yes it is. Yes it is.

It's days like today that I love homeschooling.. gorgeous weather, empty parks, the family together, no set routine.. and the writing assignment for the day = a letter to their future wife. Oh, man, I just loved watching them squirm while they wrote. If they have to practice writing formal letters anyway, we might as well make them keepsakes, no? Their wives will thank me later...








not this cute anymore!

I love the idea of writing letters to their future wives... I often find myself telling my boys, you're wife will appreciate your laundry abilities, or your cooking skills, or your understanding of haircut noticing education.
I believe that is my ultimate responsibility as a mother of four boys... to raise them so well that I one day get GREAT daughter in laws!
There's a fine line between raising sons who notice haircuts and those who become hairdressers. I am not saying there is ANYTHING wrong with male hairdressers. Gay men are the best in the business. still.
and YES to great daughter in laws! If they aren't great, then I won't give them the cute letters my boys wrote to them. so there.
Spring DOES = smiles! Amen sista! P.S. Do you think PW lives in TX? It just might be the promised land, you know.
