We love them both to the moon and back. And we're proud of the work they have both been doing in school and out. We're just plain proud of the people they are and are becoming. They've opened up a whole big world of growth for us, we'd never have had access to without them. They're both such beautiful, wonderful beings. Thank you, boys.
