More Butter (und Käse) for Mrs. B



oh, goyle




time, standing. still




Nördlingen (again). Hard to believe,
but I forgot to take out my camera
before happening upon this one. It's
brilliant and rather crumbly dignity
made me stop in my tracks. Please
note the enamel 3 on the photo
above. Like all of the pictures in
recent posts, you can click on these
to enlarge and see detail. Kind of fun.

Camera got a good workout in Germany.

gotta love her


and the dreams that you dare to dream

really do come true

dearest kb --
so glad you first called me on this day...

so glad we have been lucky in love;
so glad we have our four
marvelous kids to share this with


happy birthday, best friend



May 26, 1978: And so, all else above...


Who knew, when this cute boy first called (31 years ago on this date) that I would be taking (fuzzy) photos of now-ancient scrapbooks (that we haven't looked at in years) with my iPhone to celebrate his birthday, today?

Who knew we would date for four years, get married on a very warm day in Georgia, have four completely marvelous kids, set up camp in the southern tip of Silicon Valley...

Who knew I would love that boy more today than I did yesterday, and be secure in my knowledge that I will love him more tomorrow?

Who knew life could be so good?

Happy Birthday, Kevin. You came along on the 26th of May. It's been a remarkable day, ever after. A remarkable life, together. Here's what we do know, the kids and I: we do know we love you, more than we can ever say.
