Celebration Blues

Mermaid Girl was six years old yesterday. I asked her a question during our phone conversation, and she answered, "I have no idea," in such a grownup voice. How I wanted to be there!

Today is my 18th aliyah anniversary. I can't believe the variety of experiences since my move. How I had hoped the world would be better by now!

Tomorrow is my daughter elswhere's and Renaissance Woman's 8th and 3rd wedding anniversary (in 1998 a commitment ceremony in the USA, in 2003 a legal marriage in Vancouver, BC). What a sweet family they have made. How I wish I could babysit and send the couple out to celebrate!
