Forgot to offer my congrats to you and your son! How rude of me. One little milestone. Now he is a big high schooler! Yea!

I’m done with one graduate and working on the second. I don’t think she’ll be as hard…She likes school.

Hi Wendi,

I’m from Michigan so I know all about Midwesterners. We had the nasty weather, too. In fact, this huge limb fell of the tree in our driveway and we couldn’t get out so Mike had to quick run out there with the chainsaw. We had to pick up Carolyn in something like 20 minutes.

But we got to the school to pick her up!

Midwesterners are practical people. I like Michigan, and we probably won’t leave here. I’ve lived other places but this seems to be the best. Hey! We have Lake Michigan! You can’t beat that! We’re 40 minutes from the lake.

I love your stories and reflections. It’s interesting to think about how the environment we grow up in influences us and the people around us.

What a beautiful post Wendi. I must confess, I probably couldn’t withstand the weather in Chicago. I’m a California girl, born and bred and ruined by the spoils of the sun. From out here on the west coast, I admire your family’s ability to keep on keeping on. It’s a beautiful thing.

“Do you remember me sharing my molther’s beans and tent story?”

Oh, Wendi,
Do share. It is such a neat story. I loved it the first read and will love it all the more with a second helping!
Hugs on a sunshiny day! No more rain till Friday! Wheeeeee!
