So many things to post about, so little time

Hi All,
I have lots that I want to share, but I simply do not have the time to be as detailed as I would like. I will be going out of town for a few days very soon. When I get back, I promise to update you on the following:

• We are (most likely) getting a new family member.
• Emily and Austin had their annual check-ups.
• My dear, sweet Grandmother passed away.
• Chapter 13 of "The Story of Emily"

While I am gone, Mark will be holding down the fort. I am positive he will do an excellent job. I hate to leave you all hanging, but I will have much to write about.
