First Day Of School
The boys have finally started school. That means no more sleeping in, new clothes for the 1st day, and lots of pictures.

Grandpa Is Famous!
No one can ever tell me that toddlers do not know how to make correlations in life. This epiphany dawned on me when Bronson was 2.5 years old.

The Boys Love Thriller!
When Mo was 3, he became obsessed with a music video. While most toddlers were crooning to the Doodlebops, Wiggles, and Disney Playhouse, Mo was captivated by Michael Jackson’s Thriller.

My B Loves J’s Bey
Soooo….Bronson is smitten with his namesake. B is drooling over Bey (Jay-Z’s Bey that is). It all started with him browsing a couple SI mags I keep.
