For the first 50 years of my life, my perfectionist self mistakenly believed it was all about knowing more, getting it right, planning, attempting to prevent bad things from happening, and keeping all of my chicks in a row. It took me this long to discover that the JOURNEY is all that matters. This quote from Gilda Radner sums it all up:

"I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. "

Another Birthday for Kerry!

This beautiful girl is my daughter, Kerry.
She turned 24 years old today.


I love this girl more than words can express.


One of the qualities I am most proud of in my children
is that they are really GOOD people.


Kerry is a GOOD person.
She's a good daughter, sister, co-worker, cousin, roommate,
 niece, mother (to Fletcher), nurse...


Anyone in Kerry's life probably knows this already.


Generous, loyal, caring, steadfast, kind, considerate.


Smart, capable, unassuming.


Determined, competitive, tenacious.


Joyful, funny, entertaining.


Strong, sensitive, loving.

Happy Birthday, Kerry!

Love, Mom
