Okay, direct quote from my Savannah, "Mom, when you were a little girl, did you ever wish you could start your whole life over?" Oh my, is our home that depressing of a place to live? She's 5 1/2 and ready for a 12 step group.
My lovely wife turned a young 32 today. I can't say I had a ton of great ideas since over the last 7 months we have been busy finding and purchasing everything we need/want for our new home. So I figured the best thing I could do is give her the morning away to read her new book in a relaxing spot. She did just that and then met us for lunch where we showered her with presents. Later while the kids slept, we watched a movie, and then a babysitter came over to give us a night away at an Italian restaurant. The evening was full of deep, meaningful conversation where I shared my innermost feelings and connected with my wife. :)
Only for a brief 5 minutes did I mention the Astros latest shakeup where they gave away their minor league system for a known steriod user who is on the decline. Ah, but I digress...It was a nice day. Pictured is my troubled little girl and 20 roses I bought for my wife today for about $6 (the vase is a good 10 lbs and a gift as well).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMY!!!!!!!!!!!
You are so young! You have many, many years left to bring Father's message to the masses and your family! It is my privilege to be friends with such an amazing family!
Savannah's comment is a bit disturbing! She is only 5.5 years old!
Happy Birthday! There's nothing like time away to read-priceless gift.
