I have one amazing kid!!

I just need to take a few moments and tell everyone about Max and how awesome he is dealing with all this. And, I'll apologize now, I'm not nearly as coherent as most at 2:00 am. Max has matured a great deal in the last week, I've seen his confidence grow by leaps and bounds. He is happy to step up and try to resolve disagreements with friends (this happens often because we are babysitting 4-5 kids each week). He has this new sense of inner peace - things don't fluster him as easily, he volunteers to help out around the house and his anxiety has visibly decreased. We are so proud of him-HE IS AWESOME!!

Recent loss in our family




We are saddened by the loss of our puppy, Nipper. She was hit by a car Tuesday, June 17 and died at the scene of the accident. She has been laid to rest in Big Cottonwood Canyon near Liz's family cabin. She was a good puppy, even when she was driving us crazy! We loved her and will miss her greatly.
