A week from today, we are hosting a swim party and a birthday party for my son. We are celebrating his 10th birthday. If you are reading here, and you are a local, and you haven’t been invited but would like to be – let me know. We will be having a lovely luncheon after swimming, and it should be a wonderful gathering.
We made a Wish List based on things Nels wants, or loves. Last time we did this, for my daughter’s birthday a month ago, I wasn’t sure if it was a good idea. It ended up working out very well. She didn’t receive any duplicate items and she didn’t receive any gifts she didn’t love, and doesn’t use.
That said, mostly as we approach this celebration – his actual birthday is April 7th – we are grateful not just for our comfort, our home, and the extras that make life fun – but for our loved ones, and for the incredible honor of enjoying this life together.
Some portraits of Harris that Nels took the other night:

Link to birthday list didn’t work for me.
Harris is a real looker! Love him. Happy birthday to Nels! 10 years old. Wow! Such a milestone. 🙂

Thank you for letting me know- and I hope I fixed it properly.
Tangentially: I noticed if you buy a gift through the Wish List it automatically moves it to “Purchased” so others won’t accidentally buy it. Cool beans.

Harris is SO HANDSOME! He is also very heavy & can kick your ass. We don’t mess with him at all.
Thank you for your birthday wishes for Nels; I will pass them on.
