And now it's done! It's been a roller-coaster year. I'm thinking of my brother as his birthday is next week. Last year I went home for Christmas to visit with him for the last time.
Then, probably right after the posting above, we found out that we were (very unexpectedly) expecting our sixth (!) child. So now I'm on bed rest and counting down the weeks. (seven to go!) Now that I'm over the initial shock, I'm delighted to welcome this new little one. Talk about a plot twist.
In any case, Part 28 goes up tomorrow, or Wednesday at the latest. Then, I'll aim for every other day so we have a little time to digest between chapters.
Thank you everyone for your patience and encouragement.
Happy
