Joel had a great first birthday. We had a party at my parents house and even his cousins were in town for it!
These two - they are so similar. Don't tell them I said that, ha.
"What are you doing, Mom? Have you lost your mind?"
Forget the hands, we are going all in.
John is thinking, "Man I sure would like a bite of that cake. Help me out, Joel."
"Mom! You can't take away my cake yet!!"
Andrew and I are so blessed. Our grandfathers are 85 (exactly 6 months apart in age) and are still very much a part of our lives. The number of ballgames, dance recitals, band/orchestra concerts, academic bowl, grandparents day, birthdays, and even doctors' appointments they have suffered through for us and with us is well in the thousands. They are without a doubt the model we want to follow. And let the record state that they love their ice cream!!
By the way - it goes without saying, but I best say it anyway. Their wives and our grandmothers are and were just as major in our lives as well. My grandmother is still on the go and is no doubt the lady I want to be. Andrew's grandmother passed away before we met, but she left a significant mark on his life.
