In the Borra household, finding common activities that are fun and involve the entire family is akin to finding the Holy Grail, and not in the fun, Monty Python sense. But the Lord is kind and merciful. Every once in a while, despite the hectic schedules that my wife and I keep, and the general level of sustained playfulness that our kids are capable of maintaining, we find ourselves in that special place where all we have to do is be thankful for the opportunity and enjoy our blessings.
Last night, prior to evening prayers, the family enjoyed the adventures of Thomas the Tank Engine before going to bed. I haven't the foggiest what the adventures of Thomas were, but I remember everyone, at one point or the other, rolling around in laughter. My second son Manuel, in particular, is sometimes difficult to please. But when he is happy, the purity of his joy is wonderful to behold. Have a blessed day!

Look at that gleeful little boy! :-)
Purity indeed.
Manuel sometimes looks like that too when I'm with him - especially after he hits me! :D
Manuel loves Edward's Exploits! He even 'reads' it while pointing at the pictures on the pages :-) It's amazing actually...
Ther: You need to do something! Hahahaha ...
Johnd's a 4th?!? When? Congrats to you and Tina! I am so happy - the Borra clan keeps on growing.
