Just putting a little love out there.
A lot has changed in the grown-up world since my last post: economic meltdown, new president, prop 8 fall-out...
In our kid's world there have been changes, too. We welcomed a sweet new niece, Camille, this week. All my girls insisted on sleeping in spongy rollers in preparation to sing for an apostle of the Lord at a special conference of our Stake today. Torpedo is even more in love with Mermaid than at first. He calls her "my baby," and wants to hold her, hug her and kiss her all the time...as do I. ;) Today, I held Angelfish while she wept for a full 15 minutes because (plot spoiler!) Old Dan died in Where the Red Fern Grows. I'm touched by the tenderness of their hearts and the love that multiplies in the world because of them. I have become a better person because there are children in my life. I hope you have some in yours.

Amen to that!
i remember when my dad was reading that to us and we were all sobbing and he could barely read aloud, i think i was 10, siblings were 4 & 6? my mom couldn't tell what was going on and she walked in on all four of us crying our eyes out! it's a wonderful book.
I love you so much. I love reading what your write and learning from you. I want to learn more from you. That's why I'm tagging you on my blog. Teach me the source of your self-assurance!
