It's A Beautiful Day!

This day marks so many things. They all point to joy. They all cause me to feel gratitude beyond imaging. 

Talk about a sacramental marriage... This is all about marrying a person, a family, a parish, a community, a world.


There is so much to be grateful for... It is all gift. Mark, Erica, Gracie, Boo-boo, my friends and neighbors, my new career - such as it is. All gift. All joy. All. It is also all so unlikely.

And yet - Here. We. Are.

  7. There is nothing quite as nice as a happy bride and groom. Late in life though it came, it's a wondrous miracle and I am so glad it happened to you.
