So hard to believe that they were both inside of my belly 15 years ago today.

At 6’4” they already tower over me and their Dad, and we’re far from being short. But they’ll always be my little boys, even when they’re all grown up.

They are just both really terrific young men: Funny, helpful, kind, generous, loving, smart, clever, strong, peaceful, silly, wise, and just plain wonderful.

And they are absolutely the best brothers ever.

To each other. (2008)

And to their little sister.
