Terrific lists. Makes me love them even more. I've been thinking of you all week. Thanks for making time to visit (and eat) together. Hope Steve made it safely and that you and the kids are doing OK. (I was about to say super, but super is reserved for when you are all with Steve, isn't it?)
ReplyDeleteI'm actually commenting on your favorite quotes -- If I could come up with such a broad and enjoyable list, my life would be complete.
ReplyDeleteLovely thoughts about your children, too. They are strangers to me by now. How sad that is. But I'm glad you wrote about them.
