This is the one and only place that I feel comfortable completely bragging about my kids, since it's my own blog. So, here I go... :)
Last night I took the kids out to dinner after church (Jason was beyond busy grading papers, so he didn't go). We went to Old Chicago and shared a 3 course special; I highly recommend it! Anywho, more than halfway through dinner an older couple finished and was leaving the restaurant when the lady stopped and told me, "Your children are so well-behaved and just a delight to eat next to. You did a great job!" I just told her thank you, and basked in the delight of the complement :) I distinctly remember this exact thing happening to my family at Denny's one night while I was growing up, and I'm pretty sure it happened more than once. As I thought about this last night, I realized that someone has told us how well-behaved our kids are after every single flight I've ever taken with them. I guess Jason and I lucked out with kids who are easily entertained! Oh, and let me make the disclaimer that everyone who knows them more than superficially knows that they are definitely not perfectly behaved children. Far from it! Just ask our family or our neighbors (hi Sarah if you are reading this!).

I'm allowed to brag about my kids here, right??
Here are my well-behaved children standing on their activity table :)
Don't they have the same smile?

You have done an excellent job with those 2!!! They are normal kids...have their days...but overall they are so sweet! I remember that day at Denney's. I was always so proud of you girls when you were little.
Love you...
Mom
Rowan is so big!!
I think they are good kids! And I love Rowan's pajamas in the last picture. :)
Rowan and Ellie look almost like fraternal twins in that picture. Since he is in the front he looks bigger. The smiles are identical.
