This is a moment that I couldn't pass up on taking a picture of. Ryen LOVES Doyle. She has him wrapped her little finger. I must say, it is pretty cute. Doyle will do anything that Ryen asks of him. My family was truly blessed when Doyle came into it. We love him so much.
Jack loves to have his sugar kissed. He will keep his neck back so that you are able to have better access to it. He starts to laugh and grabs his little hands. Geez he is cute.
I love this picture. Che' was holding Jack and supposedly Chris kept eyeing her and the baby. Che' decided to ask Chris if he wanted to hold the baby. Chris, with the sweetest way you could possibly say it, said Yeah. Che' gave him Jack and I couldn't believe the smile on Chris' face. He is going to be such a cute dad. What an amazing guy he is. I am so excited for both Jennifer and Chris. I can't wait to see their baby.
Here is the rock with Charlie's name engraved in it. It was so pretty. What a special day to reflect on Charlie's life. I miss him so much. I'm not going to lie, that day was pretty rough on me. I am flooded with a bunch of emotion lately, and it hit me hard when everyone was down at the river. I remember last year at this time. It seems so long ago but yet in some ways not. I just hope that Charlie knows that we are still thinking of him.
I love this picture. I truly have an incredible family. I am so lucky to have been brought into this family. Family..... sometimes you can't live with them, but you definitely can't live without them.As I finish up this long post, I just have a few things on my mind. I attended a funeral this afternoon of a pretty special young man, Marcus. He has been living with a brain tumor for the past two years. Brad and I became very close to him. He would visit us each Sunday in the library to see if we had candy to give him. He visited me and baby Jack in the hospital the day Jack was born. He was an amazing kid. I will miss him and especially will miss him calling our family "The Strawberries".

What a sweet post Linda. I love all the cute moments you captured of the family. We have loved being able to spend so much time with you guys lately. We sure love you!
That was a cute post Linda. I loved the pic of Chris and Jack. He will be such a good dad. I miss Charlie a ton to lately. I actually had a dream about him last night. He was just hanging out at grandma's and was sitting at the bar. It was wierd, but good. I am sorry about that little boy too. I feel so bad for his parents. I can't imagine watching your child suffer like that. You are a good friend though. I love you tons LINDA STRAWBERRY!
Wow..what a post. So many comments. I love the picture of Jack and Brad. That is so cute. Of course Chris and Jack is so precious too. Christopher loves babies and I can't wait to see him with his own. I feel so bad about the boy, Marcus. I just felt so bad when you were telling us about him at Witchapalooza, but I had no idea that he died. Wow, that is so sad. I hope his family is doing okay. I am sure you are a good friend to them.
Oh, thanks for posting all these pics so that I could feel like I was there! I felt bad that I had to work... but what can you do? I'm glad at least that Chris got to go. And thanks so much for posting the picture of Jack and chris. I LOVE IT! It's so cute! I'm sorry to hear that Marcus passed away. We will keep his family in our prayers.
