Memorial Day: Honoring Those We Lost

Especially today, we honor those brave Americans who gave their lives while serving our country in the United States Armed Forces.  Although those we knew are quite numerous to name, and those we did not know-- impossible--we remember their sacrifices and are profoundly grateful.

God Bless America!

Happy Mother's Day!

As I celebrated my first Mother's Day with Clyde and Aiden, I failed to post a timely message of gratitude to our wonderful mothers.

Happy Mother's Day, Mom Lyons and Mom McBride!

Thank you for the beautiful and inspiring examples you've set.  We can never appropriately thank you for all the life lessons you've taught, the strength you've possessed, and the love you've given.  We love you, and are truly blessed to call you each "Mom".
