A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

One Year Ago Today...

Alex's brother Doug passed away.

This is a very sad day and we are trying to fill it with Happy Memories.

Memories of:
Doug as best man at our wedding and Alex his best man at his wedding.
Doug teasing.
Doug taking the boys to jump the spill way in his Monster Truck.
Doug holding Justin for the 1st time and making him look even smaller than he was.
Doug so proud, standing up in church to be Justin's Godfather.
Nic standing proud and sad as an honory poll bearer at Doug's funeral.

We miss you Doug and you are in our thoughts. Soon this new little miracle will join our family and he will honor you with his name - with a twist :)
