Summertime & Maternity Leave

My mom took vacation to spend some time with Sylas and I since The John headed on back to work after his three week paternity leave. She and my father hosted a lobster party one afternoon. It doesn't get much better than this - especially because I love listening to my father tell stories about my grandfather who lobstered after he finished his tim with the air force. My father often helped him on his lobster boat during childhood/young adulthood and it is so interesting and dear to hear stories of what my grandfather was like.  Maternity leave is rad.
