Ok, I’ve been largely MIA around here. Been working so hard on getting this little blog “revamp” going, have you noticed it? So many thoughts to share about that and my gradual shift here in blogging as my kids turn into adults. But for today, speaking of kids morphing into adults, IT’S CARSON’S BIRTHDAY!
Now, Carson is not one to want the spotlight. But it’s a big birthday today and I don’t think he’ll be mad if I just say a couple things:), right Lar? I promise to keep it short!
This kid! He has set such a high standard for my other girls as to what to look for in a spouse and also an extra member of the family. He just adds so much and is earnestly aware of everyone and just so kind.
I mean, if Lucy loves you, you are good stuff, I’ll tell you that! And Lu adores this guy. He makes everyone feel seen and heard.
He is just good to the core, the best conversationalist, always willing to help and see what needs to be done.
He’s not shy, willing to get right in there and be part of things.
Always up for an adventure.
Is the best additional son for this guy:
Treats his wife just how you want your daughter to be treated.
An example: here he is helping her float her birthday cake (her tradition) with the cake he baked for her on her birthday.
Sweetness.
They make synergy together, these two.
He works so hard, studies so hard, and makes the best doctor.
And we’re forever grateful that he’s “ours.”
Happy Birthday Carson!!
Oh Happy Birthday to the son you had the easy way. The two are adorable! Additionally close to my heart as our eldest son went to the University of Miami Medical School and he and our sweet DIL began their lives together in Miami as yours did. Fast forward they are in MO. where he practices Cardiology . ( as well I met my husband near Stanford where he was a new Attending in Cardiology at a Standford hospital.)
43 years later —— we are in MI.
I have missed you and was wondering how your family were doing. Happy New Year! Thank you for all you do with your sharing and caring. I love your blog!
Aw thank you for this nice note, Cindy! Gosh I’ve been slow at responding lately! Trying to find a balance here. I love those connections to Miami as well as Stanford hospital. Sending love right back to you!

Happy Belated Birthday to Carson. I hope he had a great day. 🎉🎁🎈🎂🥳
Just curious, was he 30 this year?
you and your husband seem to do a great job at fostering relationships with your kids in law which is so special. sounds like your kids make it easy too by choosing wonderful spouses!
just a note on the blog revamp, I can’t say how it looks on desktop but reading it on a phone or iPad gives a mobile version which is now a bit crowded and harder to navigate since this latest change. not sure if there’s anything to be done about that but if you’re still tweaking things, a layout like what you had prior would be appreciated for easy reading 🙂
Jane! I’m so sorry I’m just now replying to this! I saw it when you posted and just have taken a while to get back to it! I’m really hoping the new blog revamp is looking better by now. We have done some tweaking and it looks good on my mobile version. I don’t know if you’ll see this, but if you do, I’d love to hear your thoughts on how it’s looking. I really want to make it user-friendly but also want to add some extra revolving content at the top. Revamping some of the old parenting posts and hoping they can help people.
Sending love your way!

Yes he turned 30! Big milestone for sure.
