Hello, everyone! Thanksgiving and Christmas are long over and we had a great holiday. You can see a selection of December/Christmas photos in our gallery.
An alternate photo for the Banks Family Holiday Card.
We certainly appreciate all the Christmas cards we received from family and friends. As David turns three in February, we’ve felt more able to keep in contact with everyone, including those who live outside our city limits!
As Sheryl would agree, we realize every day how raising David is the most monumental event ever to happen in our lives, second only to getting married. For me, personally, I now more fully understand parents when they talk about the difference between Before Children and After. It’s the conversations with other parents, for example, at get-togethers at friends’ houses where we talk about, well, parenthood, that we gravitate to the quickest, and for good reason! And the impact of any story in the news where a child has been hurt, abused or neglected is felt personally.
Things to look forward to in 2009:
- A lovely night out for Valentine’s day
- David’s birthday
- Annual Banks Family vacation
- Aunt Linda’s speedy recovery from her surgery
- Continued good health of our friends and family
- Contact from you, after you read our site!
