Friday...

We are leaving Gold Beach today...

as I type this, Isaac and I are sharing delicious fudge from "The Chocolate Frog Fudge Factory".  We went there yesterday....

I now understand the phrase "...like a kid in a candy store"!!!  You should have seen Isaac's eyes LIGHT up when he saw all the different kinds of candy!  He finally chose a chocolate turtle and a white chocolate turtle for himself...black licorice for Bop and chocolate walnut fudge for me....we had a grand time there and the owner was so impressed with the way Isaac did NOT have the infamous "gimmies" like "most kids have" when they are in her shop!

This week has been lots of fun....lots of work...lots of laughter...lots of moments of "stop that, please, Isaac"....lots of work...lots of laughter...(way more laughter than work, by the way!)...

I wouldn't give you a million dollars for our memories and my prayer is that Isaac will remember this week with the same feeling.

Now we have to start packing to leave.  Isaac will miss his friend, Larry and will probably make him another waterfall when he comes to our house...I will make sure, this time, that Bop fires it and we will give the gift to Larry....:)

I am going to miss all the cuddles, spontaneous hugs and kisses, unexpected flowers given to me from a tiny hand...I am going to miss ISAAC RANDAL LYMAN!

We are blessed to be his Bop and Nuck.  He makes us feel so special and loves us unconditionally...as we do him.

Thanks again, Ana, Tyler, and Phinneas, for sharing your son and brother with us.  We will never forget this week!

  1. Isaac makes life an adventure :) Through his eyes, everything is new, everything has a touch of wonder, and everything can be defended against with a sword :) I love that munchkin! We are home, he is happily (but very tiredly) playing with Phinneas in their room, and I have a feeling that bedtime will be here sooner than later :) He had such a great time with you guys, chatted about your adventures, and got misty eyed every now and then...I think he was probably thinking about you guys and all the fun you've had :)
