Cleanliness is not necessarily a virtue on my desert outings. There seems to be a direct correlation between how dirty my boys get and the amount of fun they have.

Maybe it's one of those proud dad things, but I'm overjoyed to say my boys are boys. My oldest, Charlie is 4 and my youngest, Caelin is gonna be 2 in a little over a month. They throw rocks, hit things with sticks, eat dirt, and bash stuff with their heads. If there's a lizard they chase it, a puddle they jump in it, and a dune they roll down it. And they love Jeeping in the desert. It's gonna be a long, dirty desert season. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
