five years old ... - click to enlarge
It’s hard to believe that the two little things we brought home one day in August 2001 have grown into big five-year-old boys who go off to school in less than two weeks. They’re certainly not babies anymore.

Here they indulge in one of their favorite obsessions–trains!–at the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad in Portland.

We’ll be indulging in more obsessions during the three-week-long non-stop fete that is their birthday: a trip to the state fair, a cookout with their Minnesota grandmother (after a week of cookouts with their Maine grandfather), and a Choo Choo Bob’s party. Oh, to be a spoiled five-year-old again…

    i adore this one. those boys have a faint glow, like they’re apparitions from the past. From the background (clouds) to the foreground (little flowers), this is a gem!
