big brother is home

Posted on August 15th, 2012 by mountain girl  |  9 Comments »

Big brother Caleb is home. He’s taller, beefier, and a summer older and wiser. He’s 5’7″ now, and he came home wearing size 13 tennis shoes. It’s no wonder he was a little surprised at how tiny his new brother is!

Zia is in her glory. She’s been flitting around like a little butterfly, in and out of Caleb’s room, bringing him little gifts she’s saved up for him. The house is filled with her drawings as she produces Indians, horses, papooses, cats and dogs almost nonstop for Caleb.

Our kids are finally all here together. They are so different in shape, size, and personality–yet bound together by a common cord: our love for them.

    Mom,
    Hopefully we’ll see you before he gets TOO big…besides, I think David is about due for some real New Mexican food. (He was so desperate we ate at Taco Bell yesterday–horror of horrors.)
