My most important job is guiding these amazing humans through life

The boys have had a pretty good day today. I wanted to try and do something kinda fun, so when I ordered groceries, I added some things to the list that we could cook on the grill. It’s nothing spectacular but it’s a change of pace and the boys love cooking on the grill. Emmett …
