My blue-eyed boys

When I was pregnant, we hoped Nick would inherit specific qualities and characteristics from each of us - for example, my patience (which he seems to have most of the time), but not his dad's eyebrows (he doesn't - they are shaped just like mine); my smile (which he has - his whole face smiles, not just his eyes, like mine), but not my thumbs (long story, but he doesn't), and - most of all - his daddy's big blue eyes. They're the color of caribbean water.

And check it out ... every wish came true. Nick's eyes are a slightly deeper blue than David's, but stunningly amazingly shockingly beautiful nonetheless.
