Today our beautiful daughters were returned to us after spending a week with their grandparents, aunt/uncle and cousins in Youngstown. It was the very first time both girls had been away
from us for so long and we were very 
worried about the strain they would pose on the grands. It turned out to be a great idea that just got better and better each day. The girls were showered with attention and love. Each day they got plenty of fresh air and exercise running around the large, green yard -- something we don't have much here. Back at home, Sanford was showered with attention since Mom and Dad had plenty of time for him. And of best of all ... we got a chance to miss and appreciate each other -- all around.
This is the first blog post I have done in many months and now that I have had a chance to "re-appreciate" my family" I think it is time to resume them. See you real soon ... we have lots of catching up to do!
