A Big Ol' Day

First off, I want to apologize for not answering comments very faithfully these days. Life's crazy. Time is a rare luxury. As much as I want to address comments I just don't have time right now. I'm so sorry.

It's been a good day. I'm tired but it's a good tired.

Two events have taken place. First of all offspring number one relocated today. Instead of being 16 hours from home, she's now just 5 1/2. We're thrilled about that but not just because she's going to be closer but also because she's landed her dream job and we know she's going to do great. Now we're just hoping she'll meet someone but that's not the most important thing here.

We moved her into a nice apartment. The whole family came for the event. The day got better as it came to an end. I didn't think things could be better than having #1 closer to us but guess what? #2 and her husband told us tonight that we're going to be - for the very first time - grandparents.

We're thrilled beyond words. And her sisters are so excited at the idea of being aunts.

Yup.

It's been a big ol' day. I doubt any of us forget it anytime soon.
