Bruce Michael

This is our newest nephew, Bruce Michael. Isn't he sweet?

Hehe, I love the look on Blaine's face!

Every now and then, the news will broadcast a charming and heartwarming story as opposed to the usual daily onslaught of human folly. These beautiful and spirited little ballerinas stole my heart. All of these girls are mentally or physically challenged, but it does not deter them from making the most out of life and having fun! I dare you not to cry when you watch this video, especially when you view the parents reaction to their childrens' recital!

Wales, Wales, Wales. Wish I could go...for obvious reasons~

i'm so glad when daddy comes home....

glad as I can be!
clap my hands and shout for joy
then climb upon his knee

put my arms around his neck
hug him tight like this
pat his cheeks and give him what?
a great big kiss!
