One of the greatest feelings on earth

Looking down at a sleeping babe in my arms is heavenly. His little hand clutching the collar of my shirt. He smells so sweet and smiles in his sleep.

"Injuried"

Due to a fall from the monkey bars, Jameser has a supracondylar fracture of the humerus. Is that where the expression "funny bone" comes from? Well it wasn't funny, although some of his quotes make me smile.

At the hospital he said, "I'll probably just be here for like 2 days, but they will probably have really good choices for breakfast, right mom?"

Or when I told him how sorry I was this happened, and how I had envisioned us having such a nice weekend with family, he said. "I'm still having a good time. I just can't flex my muscles really much."

About not being able to play at recess, he said, "I'll just sit on the bench and stare at the sky to see how fast the clouds are moving. (Sigh and pause). But that will get boring in like 5 minutes."

He has been really brave and sweet about everything.

Here is a picture from Miss Libby's fourth birthday.


And here are a couple portraits I took as practice. Libby looks a lot like Luca in these.
