Warm rains of the back to school time.

Today they are getting on the bus. The 2 little fellows, partners in crime. Like Sonny and Charles, Like Roy and Patrick Like Robby and Paul and Tony and Abby and the great men duos in my life; I am having the wonderful privilege of seeing the teamwork of what makes boys become comerades. Will they be like Tom and Huck or like Holmes and Watson, will be built upon what they do now. They are on the bus stop in the warm haze and it makes me cry to see those baby boys so independent, now. Ethan and Ezra. Ethan the eternal naturalist, who would rather learn about the mating habits of spiders and preying mantises than about people. Ezra, his sidekick, who studies his brothers with intense emotion. Ezra knows how many chews it took for Ethan to lose his tooth over dinner the other night. Manly love, is amazing. God help me to challenge them and grow them in the right path. They get to enjoy the sunrise on the bus in the morning on the most beautiful road in the world, that is a start!
