Love

I don't know why, but these photos are among my favorite of the past several weeks.

They are my silver linings.

Scene of the Party

So grateful to the 40 different friends who stopped by one family at a time, in 10-minute increments, to celebrate from the sidewalk. Thank you!

Carl Turns 40!
