I was thinking of the song Red Red Wine (Neil Diamond's version)... because you know, I do that. But it has that nice relaxing rhythm, we have "grown-up" drinks at this house for that too. Ah the how's...how do we make sure we model the good more than the bad? I think we just love them. Love them lots and do our best, right?JenKehl.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00554791522281508816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411498686366661202.post-66892011147997454002013-06-24T15:54:41.000-07:002013-06-24T15:54:41.000-07:00Thank you for linking to Raising Imperfection.

I love him on the whole, my mother too, even though I learned good AND bad from both. What I remember most is how they loved me, and supported and encouraged me. That's what Claire will remember most too. The red beer and email will be laughed about around a dinner table at Claire's graduation.SMD @ lifeaccordingtostephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884611147965544589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411498686366661202.post-57819094924970913302013-06-18T10:42:08.387-07:002013-06-18T10:42:08.387-07:00Thank you, Betty.
