Emily @ 36!

(5/10/13)

Once fancy-free and adventure-seeking,

Now we find her less fancy in her freedom,

While remaining a seeker of life enrichment.

Mother of two, co-creator of the next generation,

Her imprint on an unfolding future is duly noted,

While facing the challenges of civilizing her spouse!

Her presence in our blended family circle 

Occupies an important place, 

Offering emotional intelligence 

And a zest for life.

Happy birthday Emily!

From your grateful and proud father-inlaw.
