Last Monday at 2:00 p.m. our Maryland family, plus their dog Bucky stopped by on the way home from Vermont.  Peter hadn’t seen the kids and their mother since Thanksgiving 2019.

It was a whirlwind 18-hour-visit, including sleep-time.  The boys (17 and 14) are now both 6’3”.  Bucky, their rescue dog,  took over the sofa as if he were at home. 

Our main activities were eating and laughing.  There has not been so much love and joy in our apartment in months. 

It was perfect.
