| Two Very Happy People |
My wife and I could not be
any happier that our son met this remarkable young lady. They been so obviously in love since they
first met and we fell in love with her the moment we met her – she’s that kind
of gal. You worry that your children
will meet their soul mates and then that they’ll be smart enough to marry
them. Well, the MEF means that my kids
are two for two.
I was so happy for the two
of them last night. You could sense over
the phone just how deliriously happy the two of them were also. It’s rare that I’m at a loss for words but
just thinking about this makes me so fundamentally content that is beyond
words.
My son planned on proposing
while climbing a mountain – something they both enjoy. Unfortunately his plans were interrupted by
the reappearance of winter in May but according to the MEF he found a way to
ask the question in a vey romantic way at the Bed and Breakfast they were
staying at. Again, so, very, very, very,
very happy.
Before this landmark news
arrived we spent most of the day safely encased in the house watching Boston
In other news to beat back
the rainy day doldrums my Keene Friend emerged from the mists to spend the rest
of the weekend with us just in time to watch a stirring Bruins win to eliminate
the Rangers. His new job has consumed
his weekends at a devastating pace so having him around will be a real treat – especially
Buddy who quickly reestablished his bond with his long missing friend. I’m guessing a walk is in line for tomorrow
morning.

The game went on until after
8pm so we got a very late start on dinner.
We went to Bob’s Steak House which I wrote about several months ago when
my sister and bro in law took me there.
It was almost deserted but the food was uniformly great again and the
company, well you know – even better. It
was here while we were ordering the food that we received the phone call from
my son so this place will now have that extraordinary memory attached to it.

Earlier in the day I
received a surprise package from my son in law.
He’s read the blog where I was bemoaning the lack of chocolate cake on
the new diet. Since he is my sensei on
all things keto related he took matters into his own hand and sent me a
keto-friendly box of chocolate brownie bars.
Like I said, my kids went two for two.
