MLK

  1. I can't even stand it! That photo at the end is sooooo cuuuuuuuute! Since I didn't know the Ballast family back then, this is my first time seeing 3 y/o Nate in action. Man was he articulate!! And now I can finally see some similarities between him and Dex.
    Making a donation with the boys today was a great idea. Love you guys!
