Mothers day comes with such mixed feelings.  Your happy to be acknowledged, so grateful to be a mom, full of love for each of her kids; but there is always that lingering question out there, "Did I do enough, did I love, teach, give my all so they might be safe and happy?".  This year I was expecting a quiet Mothers Day and was surprised when Roz and Rich told us they were coming to visit and would be here for Mothers Day!   YEAH!  Did I tell you how blessed I am to BE a Mom.  Our time together was sweet and precious and of course loads of fun!  It was good to see Rich and Roz relax from life even for a moment.  Thanks you two for coming!    Grotto Bay Cave Jobsons Cove Guide showing Roz and Rich the turtles Dad and Rich enjoying breakfast at the "Fairmont South Hampton Hotel" Enjoying the beach and new friends ; ) Elder Perry and Elder Usenov enjoying a a bit of sun on P day with all of us View from the l...

I know that Fathers Day has come and gone, but not so with fatherhood.  We are eternally joined and what a blessing that is in our lives. Some have passed on, others we see daily, and some are busily involved being DADS.  None are perfect, but all are loved. Even though late, I must pay tribute to the many fathers in my life . "It is a wise father who knows his child.  But maybe it's a very wise child who takes time to know his father." -Anonymous What questions I would ask if I only had moments again with both Grandfathers and my Dad!  It seems time was fleeting, then gone.  What I would give for a few more minutes.   I miss them! My Grandfather Phillips and my very young Dad The 50's were great! "Old as she was, she still missed her daddy sometimes."  Gloria Naylor Grandpa Frank with Bart and Byron, priceless! Collin, Dad and Benjamin ; ) I always said I would never mar...

I've been so anxious to post about the Francis' visiting us here in Bermuda.  We hadn't realized just how much we had been missing our family until some of them emerged from the Bermuda airport. It was a rush of tears, it was just so cool and surreal at the same time to see them standing in Bermuda. Every moment was a treasure, to watch them smile, play in the water, just to hang out, and of course to top it off, Henry's special day, his baptism!  Emily was the first out.....love her smile! The trick was packing luggage and all our bodies into the van! They stayed at the Fairmont South Hampton, so we joined them the next morning for brunch.
