Aaron loved stories. Every night was a "two story" night. The typical request was one "good boy" story and one "bad boy" story. Attempts to turn two into more were often, especially if both weren't good enough.
This is a picture of Aaron doing the story telling. We used it for a Christmas card one year, probably 1995. Those are "babies" in Patrick's lap--two babies.
A story Aaron enjoyed was the story of The Soup Stone. If you haven't heard a version, here's a link to one that closely resembles the way I told it to the boys: http://brothercadfry.tsmj.org/soupstones/soupstone.html
As I watch Aaron's House grow, I can't help but recall The Soup Stone story. Aaron's House is the result of a story of a good boy, challenges, and hope.
Good Soup.
Tom
