six

Amid the chaos of everyday life there are a few moments when we step back and realize just how big these Bejos boys are getting. In the day to day they are just a pair of little boys. But then something comes along, like a birthday, and we look at them with new eyes. Pulling out the photo albums and comparing them to last year, the year before, the year before that, and suddenly it hits us. We are in an entirely new stage.

So here we are.
A six year old.

snow day!

Tucson

Mama and Papa Bejos have been living the life of snowbirds this winter. As you can tell, life is good and they have relaxed into their new lifestyle. The boys and I slipped away for a weekend, leaving mr. bejos home to hit the books. We hit the Desert Museum (sting rays and gem show included!) and then hiked through the desert on a trail I had all but forgotten about from my own Tucson days.

squeezing in a date

Every now and then we find the magical afternoon when both boys have been invited to a common birthday party, or both have playdates at the very same time. They are few and far between but we try to make the most of them, even if it is just a drink out. 

winter cures

The warmth of Sedona calls us this time of year, without fail. Back to those predictable patterns of habits and traditions.
