A post for Papa

Hey Dad, this post is dedicated to you.  It will make you proud to hear that my boys seem to love two of your favorite locations...
Henry was playing with Josh's wallet a couple of months ago and found a $10 bill.  After he tried putting it in his pocket, we reminded him that it was his dad's money, and then we asked him what he would do with it if it were his money...
Henry: I would take it to Church, and I would give it to Father
We posed the same question to Sean...
Sean: I going to Tosto! (Costco)

A quick update

First of all, I want to say thank you for the prayers, well-wishes, phone calls, cards, and cookies that we received from after I posted about Sally.  It has been a very sad and difficult adjustment, but we are doing well. 
It seems as though winter is not going away anytime soon, but we are making the most of it.  Josh took part 2 of national boards a few weeks ago, so up until then, we didn't see too much of him.  I do have to say that I am so proud of him...he does an amazing job of balancing all of the demands of being a husband, father, student, friend, etc.  Josh and I have started the many home-improvement projects we have to do to get our house ready to sell.  I can tell already that selling a home is a very detaching process!  Henry is still loving school, and he is a huge sponge when it comes to learning new things.  Sean's latest milestone is being potty trained.  Thanks to my cousin's recommendation, the method we used was quick and successful!  William is working on three more teeth, and he has discovered that rolling can actually get him somewhere or to something....time to block the stairs!
