I love all those 100 things about you!!! And I love that after years--literally years that I can read those and still imagine sitting off the back of the houseboat as the sun sets over the cookie jar--the warm powell breeze and twilight lighting the faces of the hot boys on their slalom course ;) Oh how i love you Kell! Honestly--there are a few friends that come and go, and like the setting sun you know another will rise--but then there are those that linger in your heart and regardless of the months that pass, and the miles that seperate--you will think of them often and always keep them near! It's so good to be able to stay caught up on your life--the blog is great! I can't believe how big the little ones in your life are getting!
This is a good idea. Curse you for giving me something else to waste my time with.
