I love this little guy and his big brother.  His brother and I have been buddies for almost 9 years now.  How lucky am I that I get to interact and snuggle with these babies as part of my JOB?!!  :)

"A boy is truth with dirt on its face,beauty with a cut on its finger,wisdom with bubble gum in it's hair,and the hope of the future with a frog in it's pocket."~unknown.

Matthew kicked off two days full of boys... 6 of them.  All of them precious and full of energy.  I loved it!!  Imagine my excitement when at 6 months old, he posed himself like this.  I adore it!  And then the bed image... pure definition of a baby.  And one of my favorites.

"The soul is healed by being with children." ~Fyodor Dostoevsky.

When my Daddy died, I lived by this quote.  And how true it was for me. No matter how sad or frustrated or even indifferent you are on the worst of days, this beautiful kind of REAL happiness would have to put a smile on your face.  I love sweet little souls!
