26 December 2011 — Merry Christmas !!

Christmas Greetings,

.

God and our own personal Santa, Mama Joy, were very good to our kids throughout the year, and in particular on this Christmas morning. Fiona snapped away and sent the photos by Express Reindeer. If they measure up their 1000 word ea. billing, there’s about fifty grand worth here for you. And a heartfelt “Happy Christmas” from a chorus of twenty three clear voices.

.

.

We take this moment with all of you to remember with great gratitude, that God has blessed us, everyone.

23 November 2011 – Twenty Three, and Counting, Thankfully.

Hello, and for all of you in the U.S. (and Denmark), Happy Thanksgiving!

.

A perfect day to introduce you to two more reasons for us all to be full of gratitude, John and Wisdom, the newest members of the family. We have known them both for several years. They came to us gradually, in keeping with the philosophy and practice of our child intergration program, the creation of Joy, our Child Welfare Special Consultant. John and Wisdom visited Red Rhino several times, got comfortable with the new surroundings and reacquainted with their old pals from Springs of Hope, chose their beds and filled their drawers with their own new things, and now are home for good.

.

They are wonderful, complicated, insouciant, rascally boys. Normal, in a word. And we love them. Like you will. Here’s why.

.

.

Except for the point, the still point,
There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.
T. S. Eliot, Four Quartets, “Burnt Norton,” II, 20-21

.

Let’s dance today with full hearts, with John and Wisdom, and follow the lead of the late Jerry Garcia and, “Just say thanks.”

October 24, 2011 – One Month Under The Stars

It’s been exactly one month since we spent one lovely night together under the stars. A perfect time to look back and remember the friends and the laughter and what it was that brought us together. There was beautiful food and those that seved it and those who ate and ate it. There were luxurious wines and thosed that served them and…well, you get the point. We had auctions, quiet and loud. People who sang their hearts to the night and other small ones who rose early far away to talk late.

.

.

So many deserve thanks. So thank you, all of you, very very much. In particular, Greg and Noreen Basso for hosting every last one of us. Nick Xanttopulos from Media Fusion, you came out of the phone booth and delivered all the critical audio-visual. And Denise and the committee most of all. For the hard, hard work straight from your hearts to our kids. Many, many hugs and kisses.

.

See you Under the Stars, soon,

.
