Memories

I am sitting at Chicago O'Hare waiting for my 11:00 flight to New York City. My mom will be here in an hour and in just over four hours we'll meet Nell Lynn at Laguardia. My excitement may be palpable.

I was reminded this morning of one of the reasons I am going. After 6-10 trips there over the course of about three years, the last times I was in NYC were in 2003. They were my mom and sister's first and only trips to NYC. Here we are about to do it again. Life has changed some since then and there are five kids between us (I was pregnant with Max when I went last time) yet the thrill of this time with them is the same. The reason I am going is the memory of this last time and to make more with them.

Here's to a new photo of all three of us!
