I love you hon. Happy Anniversary!
Dinner was fabulous. (Mom & Dad – thanks for staying with the kids, teaching them the Hokey Pokey and bringing ice cream. We love you.)

Five children in four years, including two sets of twins, brought new meaning to Mary Oliver's earnest question. Our little people aren't so little anymore, but life is still wild, still precious. And this is my meager attempt to hold on, make it last. I love Doug, running, hiking in the mountains, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, the edge of an ocean, and connecting with you here. So happy to have you along.

    Shirlee – It was a nice evening out. With moving, doug's work still busy, and the kids, that was about all we could swing! But it was great. Love you guys too!

    Cristie – Those children are a big deal. Our biggest accomplishment yet. But still a long ways to go! Look at you on the other end now. It's so sweet.

    Michelle – Amen, Sister! We are lucky!
