The days are long, but the years are short…

My baby boys turned 4 a few weeks ago, and my eyes fill with tears as I think about that realization. They are not toddlers anymore; they are “preschoolers,” little boys growing up too fast.

They came into this world ready to fight, and they haven’t stopped since (literally and figuratively). More than anything in this world, I looked forward to this day– the day when I could celebrate my tiny little first-borns getting so big I would wish for the day they were small again.

Sam and Jack– you are so perfect. I don’t have the words to express how much your daddy and I love you. You are brilliant. You are loving. You are so handsome. You are kind. And most important, you are happy.

We love you.
