Often we travel to Florida to visit my family at Christmas.  This year we stayed here to celebrate at home with our kids.  We took the first week in January to visit my folks in Florida without the pace of Christmas.  We had a really nice visit with them.  It would be great to visit them more often, but that is prohibitive.  Anyway,  just wanted to say how blessed I am.
Found this picture of my Dad from 1968.

Be the Change.
