Mothering Emma Kate and Jack…

After the show, we briefly met him and attained autographs. [...]

The kids and I enjoyed our visit to Wilkes this week. The highlight of our trip was watching my dad play church league softball. I have a lot of fond memories watching him play when I was small (not so long ago!). The kids had a lot of fun cheering him on; Emma Kate made [...]
