I was kicking back and talking to a buddy the other day about the state of the economy, life and various other deep subjects. Looking over the last little while in life we’ve been very blessed.

Kayla is growing up and despite her klutziness has proven to be a tough cookie and a good climber. She’s become quite loving lately and likes to give hugs and kisses.

I am always impressed with Glenda – she has taken up tennis, bike riding, Kayla wrestling, swimming, working out. She can now beat me up at will (which honestly isn’t saying too much against me).
