X-Rays & Bike Jumps (Unrelated)

Braces are in C's future, maybe a year out.
Something he is surprisingly excited about!

This does not look safe!!
 His mother after telling him how super cool his trick was,
insisted he get his helmet on pronto!!

When he is not riding or being a captive audience,
he is charming the older neighbor girls. ;)

Date With Uncle K


I wish I could say I have the skill I once had but sadly those are days of yesteryear. Uncle K is a shark! I knew I had little to no chance from the beginning but by some forgotten skill and a strong dose of luck I only lost the 20 something games we played by a few.  I had a GREAT time! 




A quick word on my gratitude for this guy. He came out and stayed with me for a month to be my Manny. I don't have any idea how I could have made it through March without his help. He held the for together when I was working. He not only had fun with the kids he went above and beyond to make sure the house was clean and in order when I got home. He took the kids swimming, to the park, on walks, on bike rides, to the connivence store to get frozen drinks, watched many cartoon movies. He washed dished, did the laundry, supervised morning after-school and bedtime routines, picked up from daycare, cooked dinners, made snacks, took A to the gym.... and on nights when I was crawling myself home at 1am from work we had time to hang out, visit, laugh and get to know each other better.
 Gratitude!
Love you little brother

Thats Where We Are Hiking To ^^^^^

"Se that spot there on the mountain?" they asked.
"Thats where we are hiking to." they said.
"We have no trail and no gear." they told me.

I dropped them off before lunch, before I went to work, at the trail head. 
They were not home when I got home like expected. Sometime after 1am, I get a call from the gas station they made it down. 

Scratched, nicked, scraped, and gashed, but relieving my worries, they made it home.

But E is tall enough.
