Ed & Juliette, our dear sweet peas, drove down here from Northampton MA, and brought the "wicked" with them. I easily fell back into using my native Mass lingo and we really did have a wicked awesome time together. We went to the bald cypress swamp out by Virginia beach, rode our bikes around Bell Isle here in Richmond, ate lots of wicked delicious vegan food together (including Ethiopian mmmm), explored the city, clotheslined a few coffees, and just enjoyed each other's good company. We miss you wicked bad!
For my birthday (which is the same day as my dad's) Damien got me a beautiful whitewater kayak paddle. I thought that was it. I was so excited I said I wanted to go look online right then for whitewater kayaks (we only had 1 whitewater boat, in case you're wondering our other boats are for flatwater- so the paddle was the perfect impetus to finally go 
ahead and buy a 2nd whitewater boat). We ran inside to get to the computer, and I took a step backward when I saw a beautiful kayak sitting on the kitchen floor! It had a giant pink bow on it. What an amazing present. Here's a picture of me using it on the James River after a set of rapids you can't really see in the distance. I've named her Clementine.

Happy Mother's Day too to our extradordinary mothers.

Hi Juliette & Yang! I miss you two wonderful women. We had a ball with you Moores! Yang- it's so exciting to hear that you are teaching children! I suspect that you offer them beautiful opportunities to understand the world. love, erica
Hi Sally,
All my kids love drawing many symbles on the board,and they love to see the map, try to find out the places they know and they do not know.then say something and guess. They are so excited. Sometimes, they are very naughty, and I try my best to make a safe and warm environment. So I do not think any poems now. Next time. Hope I have more time to share with you. Love. Yang
