Today, my youngest nephew turns 4. I'll be spending the afternoon with my sibs and their kids.

This morning, my sister's brother-in-law, one of the sweetest guys you'll ever meet, after a long and sometimes lonely and difficult road, has been in the hospital... because his wife just had a baby girl.

A big step has been taken towards patching a crack in the system and turning life around for a family I respect and admire.

I'm helping to send a good friend, whom I also respect and admire, to a conference where she will learn to improve an already outstanding organization dedicated to making the world a better place.

I'm helping a friend (still recovering from an accident a few years back) to keep her head above water and get back on her feet.

These past few days, I've been well enough to take my dog on a good morning walk through the park.

There are other things, too.

Of course, not everything is perfect. I'm sending you my best thoughts, Val.

But, on the whole... today is a good day.

I'm so very happy to see you happy.

I hope you know it means the world to me that you have offered to help me so many times.

I also hope you know if I can ever help you that I will always have your back.

You are an amazing person and I hope you start seeing that there are a whole lot of us who care a heck of a lot about you.

Thank you.

And yes, I know, but it's good to hear, all the same.

And hey, you're pretty cool yourself, you know that?
