This train set belongs to Cameron, and was loved so much he often had trouble playing with it with others. For years it has sat in a closet mostly ignored by his younger brother who did not inherit his love of vehicles. Today, for whatever reason, younger brother brought it out. Cameron wore an unusual little grin when he saw his brother playing trains, and sat down and shared this joy with him in a way he had not been able to when he was younger.

With the American election before us and women's rights being a hot topic, how fitting to Halloween it as two capable, intelligent, independent women. Meet Hermione and Rosie.

Two boys, two 'pods,

one brand new;

double the excitement.
(i can offer a re-enactment of the exuberance IRL, upon request only)

One new x-box game,

double the stretching to fit it into our lives.

One of these boys has a passion for hockey. It has driven him for ten months now. I don't even recognize the skills he has as skater. They have blossomed from wobbly legs to speeding hockey stops and controlled turns. Now he is sharing that passion with his brother. Showing him how to move with comfort on the ice. With in the blink of an eye I have been left behind as the slowest weakest skater.  Truthfully, though it's the vantage point that brings me the most smiles.
