The truth hurts

One evening earlier this week, MrKLB and I took Brady up to his room so we could have our nightly "floor exercises", as we like to call them, which consists of us playing with Brady on his bedroom floor and laughing a lot and marveling at his wonderfulness before we put him to bed.  I picked up Brady and was standing there hugging him as tightly as I could and MrKLB came over and gave us both a huge hug.  As we were standing there squeezing our baby I looked at MrKLB and asked "Will he know how much we love him?"  MrKLB looked back at me and said "Probably not until he grows up and has a little baby of his own."  Sigh.  This is probably true.  The thought of having to wait that long for him to truly, fully understand the depth of love that we feel for him makes my heart hurt a little, though.

We're going to be sure we let our parents know how much we love and appreciate them because they've probably been waiting 31 years for us to fully understand their love for us.  So, in honor of our parents, here are a few pics of them with their new favorite people in the world... their grandchildren!
