Sebastian is four years old today! Hurray! I wish we could be there to celebrate with him and watch him blow out his candles. But we are planning to be there next weekend to help Betsy and Cam move to the house they are buying in Tacoma. They are so excited to move out of their little apartment and to have a backyard the boys can run and play in. Our plan is to have a birthday party for Sebastian next weekend when we are there.
Greg and I went to Lou and Carol Quiring's for dinner last night. Oh my goodness...it's like another world at their house. They live in a log house nestled in a wooded area close to Worley. They have a lovely covered front porch and that's where we spent the evening. Carol is a great cook and she made my favorite cuisine--Chinese! We had such a great visit with our friends. We are so blessed to know such wonderful people.
I'm feeling a little tired today. I got home past my bedtime last night! Thank you for caring about us and praying for us. Love, Julie

Thanks Mom! Of course we wish we could've celebrated with you guys, but we're so looking forward to seeing you!! I love you!
Birthday! Sebastian!
It has really come home to me this week that time has simply just arrived here, at this moment. That really there is no perceivable gap between high school and this moment. And yet. . .this moment. . . scales a heavy set man, with the beliefs on the inside of a young man, and yet on the outside, the cynicism of experience draws down and darkens the eyes, and sometimes darkens the hope for the time still left.
At those moments I get out the guitar or manipulate some music and just smile that, even after all these miles, I can still create something new.
Yes, happy birthday Sebastian!
Hope to see you in a couple of weeks Julie. I am sitting here thinking strange things and reflecting on my first day with the students. It was good, but somewhat challenging at the same time. I think I will enjoy the days. And then, at the end of the day, pick up the ole guitar and strum or sometimes even allow the muse to take me away.
Get some rest Julie!
Love,
Gerry
