When the children were young (like four of them still in diapers young) and I would feel overwhelmed, Robert would remind me that they wouldn't always be in this phase of life. He looked forward wistfully to the time that they could "be worth their salt" around the house. Well, that time has come. Its been a summer of many changes for my two oldest. They have been going to work with their father and making him very proud. In addition, they have become adept at lawn care and car maintenance. Anybody out there has a flat tire, you call Three Brothers Car Care and they'll take care of you. As quickly as the younger years went by, these years seem to be going even faster. Bought new shoes for Sam and Nathanael and they wear a men's size 10! I have to shop in the men's section for clothing. Somebody make it stop!

...and they'll just keep on growing! Our own Sam is now 6' tall and weighs in around 200 lbs. We no longer call him by his given name, but refer to him as "the beast"... It's awesome. :)
Vicki-
I saw and spoke with him at Sara's wedding. I hardly recognized him! He's grown into quite the man!
it is hard to look at them in diapers and remember that god is building men from babies.... it is good to be reminded that i will miss the babes they are - even if i wont' miss the diapers.
Yo! I need your address to send you a wedding invitation...I need your email address too...Missing you greatly around here!
