Shea found this one which is timely for Pace’s first day of kindergarten this week (and also for triggering tears in his very mixed emotion parents):
Went to a co-worker’s wedding today and felt like I virtually attended another one with how many updates I was seeing on my Facebook newsfeed. As always, that gets me thinking about Shea’s and my own wedding nine and a half years ago. Talking to some of the other guests at this most recent wedding […]
