Sleep, My Little Cubs, Sleep...






What a fun-filled weekend...the boys spent 95% of their time outside in the sun and dirt...playing with neighbors, toads, puddles and push toys. What more could they ask for? Jonny learned to fish for rocks out of the neighbor's homemade pond, and Benjamin learned how to terrorize Jonathan in new and exciting ways. The weekend was capped off with a BBQ here with neighbors...and became an impromptu gathering for more of our neighbor friends. Each kid left a whole lot dirtier than they arrived, and have our ghetto, unfinished backyard to thank for that. But holy cow, were they adorable, every last one of them and their grubby, over-tired faces at the end of the night.
Anyway, here's to life on Santa Cruz, and a FANTASTIC weekend of good weather, fun and friends.
As I was reading nursery rhymes to Jonny last night in his room...I read over the line "Sleep, my little cubs, sleep..". I looked down at him, and he was asleep against my chest...and it was heaven. It's in those moments that I feel like life truly can't get any better.
