I love being around other people's kids

Last night brought a wonderful time with a wonderful group of girls and women: this gorgeous family not only took care of Wink while we were on vacation, but also delivered her back to Portland last night, brought me some really lovely birthday gifts—including a Webkinz!!!!!!!—and then took AdRi and I out to dinner to celebrate. And can I just say the manners on these girls are incredible? They have table manners, and they push in their chairs when they get up from the table. I was really impressed. They're all such fun to be around, and I'm still filled with the happy time we had. Thank you, RSG, and your whole lovely family. You guys are the best.

P.S. I was also given this portrait made of me by a very talented artist. I absolutely love it. Don't you?
