where does the time go?

thinking about blogging takes a lot less time that sitting down to do it. i've had so many posts running through my mind that haven't made it onto the keyboard. some fun ones about sophie (who i can't wait to play with tomorrow!), and one about planning a wedding with mandy, and one about monsoon season in carefree, arizona, and one about my second grade teacher. i promise to share them all some day; soon i hope.

but today i'm going to write about sons-in-law. fred and i are blessed with probably two of the best ever. they are both brians. they both adore our daughters. they both know how to handle our daughters. (now that's just terrific... our job is done!) they are both high achievers, hard workers and goal setters and reachers.

we've had katie's brian for 5 years, and we've had mandy's brian only 10 days. katie's brian is an outgoing extrovert with passion. mandy's brian is more an intoverted, steady, thinker. i love a good conversation with both of them. though different in personality, they are both fun to have around.

when you lose your son, no one can replace him. but having such amazing sons-in-law is the best substitute. i love our brians!
