Hopeful

As the summer begins, I hope it brings a new beginning for you and for us here at the Boncimino Villa. Free time, fun with friends, swimming in the pool, and long trips to the library are beginning to entice us. This is the time we start dreaming about all those projects we didn't have time to do during the academic year; the ones we will quickly decide have no place in our summer play! Along with our trip to Maryland, it should be a fun and restful summer. My only regret is not getting the family vacation together in time for this summer.

With that is the melancholy of time marching on and carrying us farther away... from each other, from Laurie. I think it's time to pull out those pictures and put them somewhere I can see and remember and practice the habit of gratitude for the wonder of life and the love of family. Then I'll have space for the new memories to come.
