Uncles are rad!
Growing up I always thought it would be cool to have an older brother. Someone I could look up to, who was funny and who would protect me if I ever needed it. Well, the older brother thing never happened, instead I married into a family of boys. It was a stark contrast to my female dominant family and took a bit of adjusting to over the years.
This past week, we hosted one of Cameron's brothers and between Jasper's constant desire to have him right be his side to the fun voices he read his books in to their shared interest in all things with wheels it was good reminder how cool uncles are, especially to my little boy. We are grateful for all the kind and loving men in Jasper's life. Each sweet interaction he has with them is slowly shaping him into the man he will one day be.
We enjoyed taking him around to show him some of our favorite places and most importantly Jasper just loved having another guy around the house.
Two guys on a slide: one big and one little.
During his visit Jasper not only showed off his mad cooking making skills, but taught him how it is always best to always double fist your pastries because you never know when Mom is going to try to steal a bite.
