Family

Family reunion breakfast with Jack, Christa, Buddy and Baby James in Mill Valley. Mom made Dutch Baby pancakes...

 ...with blueberry-lemon syrup. She used to make these pancakes for dinner for David and I when my Dad was on business trips. I'd forgotten about that.

 After breakfast, Papa took the kids on a bike ride.

 Matthew let James know he wanted to be better friends with him by staring at him.

It worked because soon after they were running back and forth on the landing.

 Matthew liked James even more when he discovered the truck on his jumper.

 This handsome kid is 14 now and is as tall as his elders.

He also continues to hold the title of "Best Cousin on the Planet", which is what you are when you play playdoh with your 6 year old cousin.

Matthew fought off his nap for as long as he could, then fell asleep against Papa, while watching the football game.

 James soon followed. So fun to be with each other...both consciously and unconsciously.
