Patricia and Darrell


...just one last thing



Darrell and Patricia


This is my sister and brother in law.  I like to think of them as unconventionally conventional, or conventionally unconventional: in some ways they are a typical American family, and in others they are definitely not.   They have four grown children who are all unique, intelligent adults who are following their own paths,  forging their own way in the world. (See Taylor and Peggy post) Theirs is a lively family, and I've always marveled at the creativity and humor that is at the heart of their family dynamic.  

Patricia and Darrell posed for this photo at Josh and Liz's wedding.  When I asked Patricia about posting their photo, she said emphatically "Go ahead! Power to the people!"  She wasn't sure about Darrell's feelings about the Marriage amendment, maybe he hasn't made up his mind.  But this is what I am encouraged about: he enthusiastically posed with his wife, gave her a big smooch, and was not shy about being a LoveBird.  What could be better?  The world needs more LoveBirds!  

I wanted to close this out with something that Patricia and David's mother was fond of saying:
'Kindness is to do or say the kindest thing in every way"

The kindest thing to do is to 
Vote No.  

Everyone has the right to be LoveBirds!
