A Perfect Day

This is one of those days, the ones that make me want to close my eyes and re-live the whole thing. It was a perfect day. Will was so happy. He was at his best, showing his leadership qualities and his big heart! Michael was happy too! He was enjoying his baseball season. He loved being part of the group and spending extra time with his big brother.

We spent the day together as a family, left our doggies at home for the baseball game and then returned home to them with bags full of Chinese food…for us, not the dogs. Wink.
Time with family, two happy kids, two happy dogs and Chinese food takeout. Perfection!
