I Miss My Little Girls Tonight

Sunday, April 17th, 2005

Not all of you may be aware that Karyn and I have two grown and married daughters, Sarah and Hannah. Their blogs are linked at the right under “The Fam.”

This is one of those posts I may end up deleting later on after my head has cooled. But I’ve just got to write out what is spinning through that overheated head right now. As it is, I’m going to post it the way it comes out.
