kindergarten promotion

Noah finished up an amazing kindergarten year at an amazing school. We feel incredibly blessed to be part of the Caldwell family. The ceremony was so special. His teacher gave him a certificate awarding him "for sharing his gifts of curiosity and generosity with others." God has made a beautiful boy in our Noah Porter Hwang. And he's soon to be a first grader-crazy!

the boys made water balloons and played in the sprinkler today

benjamin laughs a lot!

benjamin used to prefer noah, but now really loves both boys equally!

this makes joshy happy!

noah is such a help with benjamin and talks to him throughout the day..love it!

our baby benjamin has begun to crawl and is now into everything! he is trying to pull up. his two bottom teeth are coming in, and he's even sleeping better. for the first time last night he slept from 7-7 with only one time of me going in. yahoo! hopefully this is a new trend.

today we have really enjoyed the beautiful weather and have been on the porch most of the day. benjamin absolutely loves his brothers! just look at the admiration on his face.

summer is almost here. only one week left of school!
