Lucas Camilo

First, here’s the latest (cute) Lucas video – you can see he’s getting pretty good at clapping and snapping!
Lucas had a great time with his Gramma Susan, who left Tuesday afternoon after a full 6-day visit. Lucas clearly reveled in the continued grandparent love and adoration, picking up new tricks, words, and games. It was relieving for us to have Susan around as she’s willing to pick up a book any time Lucas had a free minute (and Lucas almost always has a free minute – or hour when it comes to turning book pages.)

Frequent blog readers will remember that Lucas’s Stansbury-side grandparents were here just a few weeks ago, and that all of them plus his Aunt Megan were here just a couple months before that. Last week, when Victor heard that Lucas’s Gramma was coming for another visit he exclaimed, “Oh Lucas! You’re a rich man! So many people coming to visit you!” It struck us as a beautiful way of describing the good fortune we have, and a kind of “richness” we might really embrace. All three of Lucas’s living grandparents are healthy and excited to travel, have the means to do so, and are willing to make frequent trips across country to visit us. And, all of them (and the rest of our family) have come to love and accept and treasure Lucas as he is. Indeed, Lucas life is filled with riches.
