Beautiful! Congratulations. It was lovely to read all about this celebration that was remarkable despite and perhaps because of the adaptations you had to make.

Yes. I'm glad to have found it. Your note popped into my feed and I'm enjoying reading. My son is autistic and can't leave the house so I'm adjusting to a different set of life limitations.

Thank you, KK. Credit goes to my sister Johanna for that word. She chose it for her remarks in the wedding and I knew it was perfect. :) H

Almost exactly a year ago, I travelled to Tanzania to be part of my daughter Molly’s wedding. That little blonde thing-like your little blonde thing-now has a husband. Whether it’s singing with her at 5 (you), or walking the SI labyrinth with her at 5 (me), it’s a funnywonderful concept to get used to. What a life, huh? Lucky us. ♥️
