Wow, already Stephen's birthday. I know why Dad always grumbled about time, it just flies away. I wish the boys could have met their grandparents but it just wasn't to be.

Vanessa is taking advantage of her time off work to write a biography of Ernesto Hunter.  I keep watch over my sweetie, I don't want her to stress herself.

Caveman build fire. Cook meat for woman.  (laugh)

Vanessa has not been feeling too well the last few days. We both know what this means now.

It wasn't long before Vanessa confirmed we are going to have another baby. God, she looks even more adorable pregnant than she usually does.

Vanessa finally went back to work. She's still pretty low on the scale at the local newspaper.  She should start really finding herself though, she's working on a second book and her writing is improving beyond belief.

Of course, I try to tell her this stuff but she doesn't want to listen to me. She thinks I might not be an impartial judge.  She is the most beautiful and talented woman to walk the planet, how can you argue with plain facts?

Our view from the house

Is pretty spectacular. There is something so calming about watching water.

I decided to spend a bit more time with my remaining elder relatives.

Uncle Jack had been devastated by the loss of his brothers. He must be in work clothes, while my elder relatives don't have extremely great fashion sense, it is better than this.
