Brotherly Love: Middle son helps younger brother with math homework

Brothers can be thick as thieves (whatever that actually means) or the worst of enemies. Or both. Sometimes all at once, depending on alliances (since there are three).

I caught these two at their best. What you don’t see is my oldest’s foot, which he was trying to use to pry these two apart while he lay on the floor supposedly looking for his eraser under the other couch.

Never a dull moment…

What are you grateful for?

This is our “Thanksgiving Tree,” where we acknowledge our gratitude. In addition to “family,” “friends,” “my job,” and the like, this year we wrote “electricity” in light (and heat) of the Nor’easter that put so many if is in the dark (and cold) this past weekend. We pray that our neighbors’ power is soon restored and for the crews that have been working around the clock to ensure that it is.
