Counting the number of reasons why I love my parents would be like counting the stars - futile. But, here are three:
They share their love of geography with their grandchildren.
{my dad can take your dad in an atlas throwdown. Henry is learning from the master}
They bring their own sewing machine with them to do all my mending.
{I figure I can learn...someday. But, when this lovely lady is so able and willing, I'd rather have a job well done}
They watch three boys, including one who still pees on the carpet, so I can go watch Jay run 26.2 miles in downtown Baltimore on Saturday.
Hey...he does the posing. I just post them.
Thanks Mom and Dad! LOVE YOU!

In the words of Forrest Gump, "RUN JAY RUN."
I love your parents from afar. I have enjoyed reading and learning about them. "My dad can take your dad in an atlas throwdown"--now those are bragging rights! I love the picture with him and Henry.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure your dad could beat anyone in any kind of geography challenge. And I love it when the sewing machine comes to my house, too.
Good luck to Jay and I hope both of you have fun. I think it's great that you're going.
I've never met your parents, but they made you, so they have to be pretty great!
And good luck Jay. What a cool place to run a marathon; I love Baltimore!
Have a good weekend and good luck to Jay!
You are very lucky to have such willing parents! I hope I can do that for my kids someday! Way to go Jay! Good luck!
good luck JAY!
Great post Lucy! Thanks for sharing :)
Have fun Lucy! Run fast Jay!
what a blessing to have such loving parents in your life. So sweet of them to come and watch the boys.
hope jay did well.
Welcome Home, I'm guessing by now. Hope the race went great. Your parents coming to watch the kids probably made your get-away all the better because you could relax and know the boys were in good hands.
