The bride, Tara, is my much-loved niece and goddaughter, and I remember holding her in the church when she was baptized, just a tiny baby. I suppose we use the cliché that time flies because it does. Tara and Tim were married on Saturday, and we were so happy to share the gorgeous day with them, my brother Ron, my sister-in-law Jean, and my other nieces and nephews (one is turning 40 in February and another just had his third child and is a New York City firefighter like my brother).
And as if to drive the point home about time's sonic speed, the nine children in the photo below are my stepbrother's grandchildren and Tara's nieces and nephews. Grandchildren! Nothing shows the passage of time more than the bean-stalk-like growth of children. What a great day to be together as a family!
