JULY 7, 2024: “With Love, From The Garden!” …

Well, folks! I have some pretty big news! Be it known to all that on the very last day of our 2024 annual family vacation, at just about 4:00pm beneath a tree in the same moss-covered, Butchart Japanese Gardens in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada that we visited back in 2017, my first born finally took a knee and made not just one, but two very happy women even happier!

To say I’m elated wouldn’t quite give proper credence to the feelings of not just pride and joy, but even more so peace of mind knowing that this girl we’ve all grown to love and adore so much will soon become a permanent part of my little family’s brand new legacy. This is their song, by the way, which is why the precious video nugget of “the moment” is set to it.
