because their parents' philosophy is that pitching in comes with the

unit and to know that we all chip in, and we can all count on each other
for help," said their mom, Noelle Deleon.

It is so nice to hear of parents that are working to strengthen the family unit but working together. What fine character traits these boys will learn, and be able to build on as they mature. Thank you Dad and Mom!! If really is worth the effort, as well as time spent to raise responsible, self-sufficient children.
