Toasting to a Visit...


Happy Wedding!, originally uploaded by theredheadedlefty.

from Lindsay! She'll be in town this weekend from Arizon, where she moved with her hubby, Nick, almost one year ago. We met in graduate school---actually, just before classes started. We worked as research assistants (i.e., gossip queens) for one of our University's mental health research centers. I thought she was too "put together" for us to be friends at first (i.e., I felt pregnantly scrappy and she was tall and looked cute in all of her jeans). Turns out we love, love, LOVE each other and she and Auntie Grace are my two surviving pre-baby St. Louis friends (and their two is like other people's ten).

She's way ahead of me---Have I mentioned she proposed to her spouse? And that they are headed to Germany to live? And that she stuck with me through the first year of Wynn's life (when there is no doubt in anyone's mind that I went cuckoo)? And that she used to live in a tiny apartment where, when you visited, you had to bring your own chair? Love that.

Going to be good times. Renee, her mama, is one of my most regular readers here. Renee, count on the pictures, sister.

A-I'm counting on an entire portfolio! THE best medicine for my sweet girl's "missing-my-Nick" blues is time with her favorite folks (and canine, except, of course, for the Flynnster)in the world. Enjoy!!!!!! Love, R
