Have Guitars. Will Play.

Our baby turned 8 last month.  It's just a shame that we all have to get older.  He eagerly entered the waters of baptism, became a Cub Scout (had his Bobcat before I could say "Do your best!"), and has become magically more responsible and obedient.  He will also be gaining a new set of eyes this week as we've ordered him a pair of glasses.  Weird.  Seems just yesterday (or a few weeks ago anyway) we were changing his diapers and wiping his sticky fingers.  Now he can do all that on his own.  Even the diaper.  I  know, we have talented kids.  But seriously we're so super proud of our boy and who he is becoming.


(He was such a little rebel before he was baptized.  I mean....)



One of Josh's improvised solos at his guitar class' concert: (it starts at 0:35)



I caught Jonah sitting on the bottom bunk singing and playing the guitar one day.  Out of nowhere.  Melted my heart.

Those guys of yours should start a boy band. A really cool, really talented boy band. Is that an oxymoron? No matter. Your boys are awesome.

I love this post! I actually cried thinking that your baby is 8 and then again because I was so proud of Josh's confidence in his playing! Wow! Looks like Jonah's going to follow, huh? What great boys! ALL of them!
