Life.
Asher and I decided this week that we needed a little color and life in our backyard. He was so cute with his little gloves and shovel, and surprisingly enough a big help! He kept saying, “what next?” I love a hard worker :).
Jeremy and I were just talking today about how big he’s getting. He’s able to do so much now by himself, and it’s been a blast doing older things together like playing board games. We have had some challenges with this new little 3 year old attitude and tone he’s developed, but I guess this parenting thing would be boring if he never challenged us (L.O.L!!).
The three of us went today to buy a tree for Paxon. It’s a dwarf orange tree, and it’s beautiful. We’ll always think of our sweet boy when we look at it.
We made another trip with Daddy to the AZ Museum of Natural History. Asher loves this place! And, he really loves it now when he’s wearing pants or a jacket with pockets so he can put his hands in his pockets. It’s just about the cutest thing.

I love the idea of planting flowers and the tree for Paxon. It’s fun to see how big Asher is getting and what a great helper he is.
What a great idea to have that tree for Paxon…so special! That last picture of Asher with his hands in his pockets is too much! Adorable!!
What sweet times with your family. Love the gardening, and the tree is a great way to remember your sweet Paxon. As far as the hands in pockets-does not get much cuter than that!
Oh my goodness. . . those hands in the pockets. . . if that doesn’t erase any memory of the 3 year old “tude”, I don’t know what will! He is the cutest!
Good job, Asher, helping mommy plant such pretty flowers. What a sweet idea to plant a tree in memory of your precious Paxon. We love you lots!
Love the idea of a tree! Asher’s hands in his pockets remind me of Super Grampa(he always walked like that)Hugs&Kisses
Beautiful pictures. I’m so glad you found a tree and it already has oranges on it! So great. That son of yours is so handsome and his “tude” will be molded into great character and personality by the two of you who are so diligent in your parenting. He is one very fortunate boy.
Good to see life is going on. I can’t imagine how hard it is. I love the color of the new flowers, and even more, how Asher’s helping out. I think of Asher and Ben as being alike. LOTS of energy and sometimes attitude but tender hearts under all that. Continuously thinking of you guys as you continue on with life and grieve for sweet Paxon.
I love that now whenever I see an orange I am going to think of and remember little sweet Paxon.
Oh Asher…how you melt my heart!!! I can’t wait to see him again.
Always thinking of you and lifting you up before our Lord. We love you Olimb’s!!!
He is just adorable! I love that kid! Perfect tree – wonderful tribute. Still praying each morning for your family. We love you.
🙂 Love you. That museum isn’t far from us. We’ll have to meet there sometime when I’m not wiped out from the chemo. I’ll even let the boys skip school, just for fun.
