I am happy for you. I am sure you and Zach will have a great time. I feel sad for “Dolly” as it sounds like whatever is robbing her of her health is also robbing her of her will and spirit.
Have an awesome leave, maybe someday other states will follow in Californias footsteps!
Damn. You made me cry. How wonderful that you can look beyond the her being just a person on the other end of the phone. Zack is very lucky to have that role model.
I seem to have missed out on a very special event over the past couple of months, congratulations! Enjoy every second of your leave, I’m sure you will.
Your patience and compassion is a blessing and a wonderful example in the world. Every time I think about wanting something more, anything more than I already have, I feel a bit guilty because in truth I’m so freakin’ blessed. It’s good to remember that. Enjoy your one on one time with the Zachster! YAY for California and the FMLA because it’s more important than most people know.
