Things I Don't Want to Forget

Usually, the 4pm hour around our house is like a ZOO.
The energy that was contained all day at school is unleashed and it is 
LOUD and BUSTLING at the Gentle house.
This afternoon, they all came home and sat down TOGETHER 
with two boxes of markers, some fresh paper, 
and sat in SILENCE.
I had to document it.
 Ahhh, just look at them!
 While Charlie was taking a shower, the other evening, he chose to use his dad's soap and said, "I'm pretty much a man, already."
 Last night, Mike was at board so Rob took it upon himself to bath the little two.
 Will's giggle is the best giggle I have ever heard.  Yesterday, it was from behind a sticker he put over his mouth.  What fun you add!
Jack's been really big into writing letters.  Nothing sweeter than when it is, " M O M."

The Cake

Will, where'd the first piece of cake we gave you go?
 You gave it to Jack?
Well, here, have another!
 Too sweet?
 That bad?
 Apparently, the purple layer is OK?
 Well, at least Jack gave it the seal of approval.
Maybe, next year, you'll like cake!

This Is the Day! - II

Last year, I posted this.

 This year, you are here!
 We celebrated WITH you!
 All weekend long.
 And, boy oh boy, do you give us reasons to celebrate!
 Even when you question us.
We are so glad you are a part of our world!
 We didn't realize what we were missing until you arrived.
 No gifts we gave this birthday, compare to the gift you are.
Happy 3rd birthday, Will!

Budding Artists

All done Will? No?
Now, Will?  Still no?
Now?

How about now?
Jack looks at Will's paper and says, "Uh, I'll finish it, later."
Will's still painting.

Valentine Visitor

 Jack's class was happy to invite Will to their Valentine's party.
 Jack was a great host. 
 Jack loves school.
 It was fun to see him combine his two favorite things.
Will was pretty happy, too!

You can guess which one would be which.

What Time Is It?

Jack, what month is it?
 February!
 What day is it?
 Wednesday, the 1st!
 What time is it?
Snack time!
Nothing sweeter than getting to eat your snack outdoors in the sunshine in winter!
