you've raised beautiful, smart and brave young women...you should be proud of yourself!!
ReplyDeleteHolly one could say the same about your parenting skills! We are both blessed beyond measure.
ReplyDeleteWhat Holly said!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you and Mike for bringing up wonderful, independent, and beautiful girls with passion for world-wide adventures.
What gifts!
Barb, what lovely daughters you have--you and Mike have done such a great job of raising Aria and Athena to be beautiful self-confident, accomplishing women.
ReplyDeleteJane, thank you. Parenting is probably one of the most challenging processes we accept. It is an amazing job in which there is not a scripted "how to do" handbook that comes with the territory. I am enjoying the evolution of the "work". It's a life long job as you know. The best employment of my life. May I add it's been a joy watching your Casey grow up. I can't wait to see where his life leads him.
ReplyDeleteYou have given these girls the gift of loving life... that is not something most of us find until we dig our way out of living life.
ReplyDeleteBrava!
