on this day...

Big Little Boy was born 4 years ago, almost to this minute ... and my life, and the way I think about things, and love things, changed instantly, and forever. The smallest things became more important, and the need of having my children surrounded by loving family became even more paramount. I now yearn to have the warmth and security of my extended family around me.

I am still riding the wave of wonderful feelings that my extended family brought us, this past weekend!
