Father's Day was also the day that I realized that we had crossed a magical threshold. No longer am I a father to two toddlers - instead, we have a little girl and little boy. It sounds like such a cliche to say that they are getting so big, so fast, but boy are they ever. Ian in particular is growing like a weed these days and has started eating like a horse.
Here they are riding together on the roller coaster we have set up in the backyard after dinner. They were having a blast together. While they still argue a lot, they have come a long way with regard to playing together.
Here's Jocelyn at dinner posing for the camera - one of her all-time favorite pastimes - and showing a silly side that comes out a lot more these days.
And here she is giving me a hug to go along with my Father's Day gift. What could be better?
