Two years late. Because that’s my life these days. But loving this look back to the what feels like a lifetime ago; just my older boys and Janet, with Carla. Adventuring through busy streets, eating frogs, raising our glasses, driving through back roads on mopeds, learning about the Vietnam war, and studying a culture different than our own. When I think about how I want to raise my boys, this is it. This world is such a gift and there’s so much to discover. I find it both my duty and my privilege to show them at least some of the corners.

Longing for Covid to be over. Wear your masks 🙂
