Sarah emailed me some photos of my little loves, and this one so enchanted me that I made it the desktop background on my laptop. They were playing hide-and-seek and had just been discovered in the closet behind Papa's suitcases. I don't think there is a a sight in this world more beautiful than that of a healthy, laughing child. And if it happens to be one that you love, it's better than meat and drink. I really miss them so much.

Nothing tempts me to pack it up and go home like the thought of my two little Latina angels! I know I won't, but it's uncomfortable, no doubt about that. Ah well, no gain without some pain. They are well and happy and nothing else matters.

Ta ever so! The upside of having having nothing to do but study.

I think you're right, Trace -- I can picture myself up on that stage, the U-haul all packed, thinking, now that wasn't so bad, was it?

Mom checked out the picture and said, truthfully, that if you could make Phia's hair red, and her eyes blue, you'd be looking at Sarah at that age. It's uncanny.

And Bailey looks like . . . the iceman. (For Trace's benefit in case they don't say this in England: that means a child doesn't look particularly like the mother or father or anyone else in the family. It was at one time a common and innocuous saying, why I don't know, since the implication is that the iceman delivered more than ice . . .)

Hold on, still reading . . . I think I want to invest. Trees! What a concept! I love trees! If only they had some whales to go with them! Or some ozone. Let's see . . . I've got $23.16 in my wallet. Wonder how many trees that would buy?

All three of you are nuts. Which grow on trees.
