Thoughts

Congratulations of the highest order to Drew and Kristen. My brother took the big step yesterday as he proposed to his special lady friend. She said YES! There is hope for us, yet.

I am very excited and happy for you both.

Drew, thank you for perpetuating my reign as the bad son. You're a good man, Charlie Brown. You chose a beautiful, intelligent partner, what a great compliment she is to you. I love you, man. I couldn't be happier for you.

Kristen, I want you to know that you will be a very welcome addition to the family. Hopefully you see now that we're not so weird...once you get used to us. Or maybe you see the exact opposite. Either way it will be an honor to call you "sister".

In a related piece of news, the family pool has me picked in last place of the four children to get married. Though I may try to throw them all for a loop and hang up my spurs early. Any takers?
