We spent the last two nights at the beach with the Schuelers. It was wonderful to have a chance to get away and Isaac was about as wonderful as any 5 month old baby could be. Eli and I got about twice as much sleep as Mark and Hanna, yet somehow they did all the cooking. We had some lovely meals out, fantastic walks on the beach, wine in the apartment and we took lots of photographs on the beach.
I’m so glad that we have gotten to watch Isaac grow for the past five months. It’s nice to remember the first moments they became a family and to see how far they have come. Mark no longer regards the imposer with uncertain suspicion.
