July 1

Isaac had an early practice today, and when I went upstairs to make sure he was awake, I discovered that Brady was still asleep. 

I didn't have a lot of time to savor the moment, but I did creep into his room as quietly as I could manage and snapped this photo.

He looked so sweet lying there clutching BearBear (whose feet are prominently featured) that it made me smile. 

He's growing up fast, but he's still a kid. And I'm grateful for both of those realities.
