8. We're all spread out.

Over three states.

But it doesn’t seem to matter since we’re still close, we still like each other as well as loving each other. I’m REALLY proud of them both. And we’re all on good terms with each other, and still in regular communication all around. I can’t think of a single thing to complain about.

And if need be, we’re all within a few hours’ drive of each other. Not too close, but not TOO terribly long a drive away, either.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms here!!!
