"For unto you a son is born....."

"Silent night, holy night....."  as the sun set I sent a prayer to my neighbors, Annie and Aaron.  She gave birth tonight at home to boy babe!  To take  Justin and Russell home to their new brother is a moment I will go to sleep tonight smiling in humble awe.

And to celebrate the birth, a second block....



The boys playing Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer at a wild spring near our home.  "Mom, the sewer is causing the pond to flood!"  An hour of mud and dam building helped pass the time until baby brother was born.
