12 Things I Love About Cam

1. He's mature. He was an old man right out of the womb.

2. With two knucklehead older brothers, he's learned to hold his own and assert himself

3. He's my eyes and ears when I'm not around, much to the chagrin of said knucklehead older brothers ;)
4. He's the first to do his chores and does them thoroughly (unheard of)
5. He has a gift for organization (I like to take credit for that one :)
6. He's tender hearted but doesn't want to burden others with his feelings

7. He'll still have a sleepover with me when Rob's out of town
8. He'll let me practice ping pong with him without keeping score to spare me the humiliation
9. He's the only one who will play Bananagrams and Nertz with me without too much harassment on my part
10. He's the Slime master and has created about 17 different versions of slime

11. He loves to bake for neighbors and his classmates (and thankfully Mrs. D lets that slide by the no-bake policy)

12. His nemesis is boredom exacerbated by high expectations and impatience (oh, but this is a list of things I love about him, haha). He just asked Cy when he'll be done with the laptop so he can do his homework, and Cy answered "In about 40 minutes." Cam said to his phone, "Set timer for a billion minutes."

Love you, Sweet Boy!!! 😘😍💗

Getty Is Adulting

[Waaaay back in July...]

For Getty's 18th, he wanted to keep things low key and do some hikes as a family, so we headed to Diamond Fork hot springs. "Low key" is not a phrase I've ever attached to Getty (ha!), but he felt like he needed to focus on healing his family relationships since treatment.

Sunday afternoon, Rob left on a business trip, and the rest of us headed for round 2 to Bridal Veil Falls for a picnic and bike ride down the canyon

So, I'm taking pictures of the kids when this guy walks by and stops directly in front of me two feet away, oblivious that his head is now the focus of my camera. The kids couldn't take it....

This is the kind of mail Getty's getting 

nowadays... no comment 😑
