Continuing to sort through memories, I want to include this birthday message from the Angel and include a beautiful card from the Saint. In the midst of a whirlwind trip home, after an absence of over seven months, these two women took the time to make me feel valued.

Hi Hope,
Just wanted to let you know that I've been thinking about you, especially today. I hope that work and medical craziness aside, you're getting a chance to soak in some love in Michigan.
Love you lots,
Angel
dearest Angel,
Thank you so much for the birthday message - I am always excited when I see your name in the e-mail. I have been thinking of you so much with feelings of missing and gratitude. The awful reason for the extra visits aside, I feel quite decadent in having been able to look at your face and hear your laugh these past few months. You and the Son bring joy and structure and fun. That is not to put pressure but to say thank you for sharing each other, your time, and energy.
The trip to Michigan has been good and it has been tiring, but both have been more than worth it. We are going to see about 25 of the family at Uncle’s today and Cousin tomorrow at Aunt Berkley’s. Depending on air travel, might get to see all of Aunt Fenton’s girls and the two babies on Tuesday. Very little work getting done in the midst of all the visiting, but am hoping I can pull things together when I get back to PNW.
Forgot to mention to the Son, but I hope you know that Canine fur-kid is very welcome if you want to bring him to Michigan next weekend. With only the PNW crew there, it might be a quiet enough environment for him that will let him stay with you. I think you may have said the trip is a bit long for him, but just know that he is more than welcome, can't hurt a thing, and I wish I could see him and walk with him.
Sending the biggest hug ever and a kiss for your cheek.
love,
Hope
