My Boys...

The weather has been gorgeous and so the boys wanted to go outside this morning. They had been out there for over an hour, playing SO nicely together. When I looked out the kitchen window, this is what I saw: 

 

 Melts my heart! 

I was struck in that moment with an abundance of thankfulness--for our gorgeous weather, for our backyard that I can see from our whole kitchen & family room, for being able to stay at home with them to enjoy these moments, and most of all, for these sweet boys. 

Believe me, there are times that don't seem as sweet and moments where they are not being nearly as nice to one another. But, more often than not, they play so well together, despite their 3 year age difference. 

I know Eli (& Mommy) will miss these moments next year when Andrew is at school. (And, now with that thought...I'm crying!) 

So, we'll need to soak up as many of these moments as we can these next few months!

And, it's amazing to think that in less than 5 months (hopefully) we'll have another adorable little guy to add to this mix! Hopefully I can look out the window in another two years & see a scene just like the first picture with just another little blue chair added! :)
