Tucker and the pile of leaves

Last night, I took the boys outside to brush them. Tucker discovered a small pile of leaves near our porch;

Then he sat down in them! He looked so content.

In other news, I would appreciate some good thoughts for my sister Cheryl. She was recently diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer, and it was such a surprise, since she is only 38. Unfortunately, breast cancer runs in our family (my mother is a survivor, and a paternal aunt died from it). I am wearing pink in her honor today. Ladies--get your mammograms and do your self exams!
