Mom is getting her new heart!

Aaron's mom, Jackie, is is surgery right now preparing for her new heart.  Her new heart is on it's way from Colorado with the surgeon, who has inspected it and pronounced it the heart for her!  Please check out her CaringBridge page for more updates throughout the day....

My grandma, my mom's (Marianne) mom,  passed away early Thursday morning, so the loss and grief that another family is experiencing today is very real to me.

Breakfast conversation

Overheard at the breakfast table early Easter morning:

Max:  Have any of you entered puberty yet?

Elizabeth:  No, but if I had, I wouldn't tell you!
