Reflections of parents of not-so-young-kids-anymore
We post a sample of photos – whether of our kids or our travels – on our blog here, but our Flickr album is where we’ve been putting up our larger collections over the years now. I typically access these
One thing about living on an island is that as since we’re completely surrounded by water, it’s practically a life-skill requirement for all of us island-dwellers to learn how to swim! We often brought Hannah as a young girl to
