Almost There!

Hi everyone! Just wanted to say hi. I have been reading the blog but haven't posted for awhile. We have been hanging out and preparing for Marshall to come. We only have five more weeks until our due date. I have included a picture of what my belly looks like for those family members I don't get to see regularly. Eric is doing great. He is definitely in the "terrible twos" stage. He tests all limits! Overall all I think he is a good boy but sometimes.... Here is a picture of him taking a bath tonight and another one of him washing dishes at Papa's house. Love to all Kerri

Hello Family. Craig has asked me to recommend the next book. I'm reading a book right now by Richard Powers which I like, but Rick is urging me to recommend, "The Glass Castle," by Jeannette Walls. It's a well-written, fascinating memoir, but not showily bookish. I'm betting everyone will enjoy it. Somehow we ended up with two copies. I'll send them to Craig, and he can distribute them. Nothing much out of the ordinary going on here. It's fun reading the family blog. I just need to get in the habit of checking it more often. Love to all. --Jennifer

Larry,

I'm sitting here feeling worse than I've felt in years. I have one of the various flu bugs that have been circulating our area. Right now I feel somewhere between " What was the make of that bus that hit me?" and " Do you have a gun? Please shoot me." Anyway, not having anything to do I thought I'd peruse the blog. The picture attached is a culmination of a day in the snow with Moriah. We went sledding, cleaned the sidewalks,made snow angels, built a snowman and finished off with a mug of hot chocolate. Kids really do keep you young. Later--Larry

Valentine Poem

Kerry. Who's the author? Craig.

A Valentine Verse from Anthony and Kerri

Happy Valentines Day everybody! Here's a love poem by one of my favorite poets.

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)
i am never without it
anywhere i go you go,my dear
and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling

i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)
i want no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life
which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
