Hope is the thing that is willing to take a chance on the future. Hope is the capacity to see something on the horizon that we are willing to move toward. If our hope gets us from today to tomorrow, and in that new day we are ready or able to deal with something we thought we couldn’t face, then hope has done its job. There is a worse thing than false hope. It is no hope.

Eric got his bugs!

All of us watching old home movies -- good thing I have a big couch!
Eric after a long day.
Thank you for riding along with us on our journey.

Wow, Ann! I almost didn't recognize Eric...he looks like a teenager sprawled out like that!
LOVE the family-on-the-couch pic!
Merry Merry, Happy happy, and isn't it just the bees knees that Jack didn't have to spend that amazing gathering in his room!
Methinks, it's gonna be a good year for your bunch!
Wow, looks like everyone had a great time, I love the couch pic too.
Glad to see Eric got his bugs.
Lots of love to you all.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to your lovely family!
