Daddy has been building

Lately there have been some fabulous moments in parenting that I know I will regret if I don't write them down...

Elijah came to say good morning after waking up but clearly stated, "NO kisses until you brush your teeth mom!"

As I was drying off after a shower Elijah stopped mid-conversation to ask, "when me and Micah grow up are we going to have REALLY BIG BUMBS too?"

After Micah got dressed for church I told him he looked handsome. He objected loudly and stated "don't say that mom, Elijah is handsome, NOT ME!"

After letting Elijah go on a 2-wheeler for the first time, I watched with tears. He rode up and asked, "sometimes do grown-ups cry when they are happy too mom?"

Canada Day involved Elijah asking how old Canada was turning on it's birthday. I responded by telling him "144". He responded, "oh, so about your age mom?"

I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!!!

Summer Fun!!

Hello again.
As you can see some summer weather has finally arrived and we are trying to make the most of it... Soccer just finished for the outdoor year, but negotiations are in the works for winter soccer league... Aside from getting rained out of too many games and devoured by mosquitoes it was a fun soccer season. Micah averaged three goals per game, Elijah loved playing in net, and once was sure that he had "kicked the ball all the way to Jesus!"

Daddy took the boys for some "father/son" time up to Drumheller and Canmore. Again, aside from the rainy weather, the boys made the best of it and had fun with dad. They turned the hallway in to a bowling alley, had movie nights and fully enjoyed their bunk bed room that "Auntie CC" generously designed just for them. In fact the bunk beds were such a huge hit that mom and dad bought them some for their rooms at home...Hope you are all enjoying your summer and we will keep you posted on how summer camps go.

Love and prayers,
The Brown Boys
