Good to hear that life is going well.  I understand what you mean about keeping the cards close to your chest as you get older.  I've always wondered what that meant when Jesus said to be like little children.  They are total blabbermouths, but mostly because they say what they feel when they feel it.  How does a cool, calm, collected (My! We adults certainly like our "c" adjectives, don't we? :) adult do that?  Good thing I'm not a grown-up or else I'd have to start working on that. :)

As always, please write a book. :)  Maybe just a chapter a day...or a week....or at least giving me the promise that you'll give it some serious thought in a couple of years.  Seriously.
