And that makes Seven

kay_gmdSeven years ago and a day Groblek and I threw a great party (largely at the expense of family) and made official the beginning of our family.
It was a great time. There was singing and dancing and good food. Family (natural and chosen) came together to help us celebrate.
It was an amazing day!
Because we have many friends and family that can speak for quite some time we decided to minimize toasting by not providing a microphone. But there were a few, and one in particular has stuck with me.
Lochen's (sp?) toast was something to the effect of May this be the worst day of the rest of your life.
So far it has been.
It doesn't always seem that way in the nitty gritty of the moment, but every time I take the time to reflect on it I know that life has been so much richer since that day than I could ever have imagined.
Thank You!
Sorry I didn't get this posted yesterday. The end of the fiscal year is a little crazy, and I wanted to get it right.
