Bittersweet

 Kari sent me an email last night with so many cute pics of the kids.

 Our families have really grown up together. Kari & I had so many late night emails before we had the twins & during that tough first year.

And the funny thing about kids, those emails really haven't stopped. We still compares notes on the twins' development & Ella/Noah's progression in school.

The twins feel such a camaraderie together. 

Ella & Noah have such a great friendship.

I am so grateful for all the love & support Kari gave us before (and after) the move.

It's really hard not having these kids near by or in school together. 

We are anxiously planning a camping trip this spring.

I know the kids will pick up right where we left off.

We all just wish playdates were a little easier to coordinate now.

Kari, these photos put such a big smile on my face!
