Four Years in the Blink of an Eye


This past Saturday, we found ourselves enjoying dinner at the Holbrooks (right)...and quickly realized that exactly four years ago, we were doing the same thing (sans Clare). The difference being that four years ago, we were visiting on a house-hunting trip in preparation for our move from Chicago to Atlanta. So much has happened in those four years that it seems silly to say that I can't believe it's been that long, but...I really can't believe it!


Jack, Clare and Danny got along famously while we adults caught up, which of course is how you always picture these evenings going when you schedule them, but don't always actually achieve. The musical performances were particularly riveting. Fortunately the musicians left frequently to go practice, which left us plenty of time to reminisce and plan our retirement to Charlottesville. One can dream, anyway...though for right now, the ATL is treating us pretty well. It's easy to imagine many more years flying by as quickly as these have.
