Simply titling this post “the end” seemed like a downer, so I’ve added “happily ever after” to liven it up a bit. The month of May was good to the Baxter family and as it ends I find that it was a very busy month giving me lots to write about. I held true to my promise to “try harder”… Read more →

Dear Baby William…
