The Fousels

Ethan's class performed 4 songs at their winter concert about 2 weeks ago.  He did absolutely awesome.  I wish you all could have been there.  He was hilarious and so animated.  We did videotape it and hope to have it posted here or maybe I will just email it to some of you.  Please remind me to send it to you if I happen to forget and you would like to see it.  Here are some pictures in the meantime.  There's one with Ethan and his Kindergarten teacher (who we just love!) and one of the tree that he made at school...sugar rush for sure!   So glad he decided not to eat it. 

I just can't quite understand how this year is almost over (well a few days away).  Time has really gone by way too fast.  We are all a year older, and I hope, a year wiser.  In Noah and Ethan's case, way too wise for their age.   They sure are a couple of smarty pants but mostly in the good way.  I look at them sometimes when they are busy with something and really just  LOOK at them and remember how truly blessed I am, how truly blessed we are.  That's when I wish time would stop so I could hold on to my boys and keep them young, safe, and innocent forever.  But I know that's not possible so I give them lots of hugs, kisses, and tell them how much I love them as often as I can.  Life truly is too short and you never know what's going to be around the corner. 
Well enough of that.  Here is a picture of Noah, Ethan, and I as we are on our way out the door to the Mother & Son dance at their school a couple of weeks ago.  We have gone for 4 years straight and always have a great time.  They love to dance with their Mommy still, but I am sure it'll end sometime. 

Happy Birthday Grandma Darlene!!! We love you
