Happy Birthday Becky

Wanted to wish a quick Happy Birthday to my younger sister Becky.  I wish we could be there to wish you in person, but the snow would probably keep us away anyway.  Hope it was a good one.

Day 4 – A Christmas Miracle

Today I witnessed a miracle and it is all due to some presents from Christmas.  Not long after the boys were fighting over the train set both of the boys sat down and started racing on the new Lightning McQueen RC slot car set.  When we first opened it on Christmas the cars could barely make it up the hill causing the boys to lose interest.  Today I changed the batteries to see if that would help and they were back at full speed and before I knew it they were both not only racing, but they weren’t arguing about who is winning and losing.

Then about an hour later, after dinner, they boys did something that we haven’t seen in quite some time.  They took an actual bath together, thanks to some pretty cool swimming fish found in their stockings on Christmas morning.  They played the entire time without fighting.  I’m still sitting here in shock at the thought of it all.
