On my magnificent good fortune

Tonight, sitting in the 32-degree cold and rural dark outside of my sister's house, I saw three shooting stars.

"One for each of us," I thought. Nora, Patrick, and me.





I am extraordinarily lucky to have these people I so admire and love as my siblings and ballasts.

    My cousin recently had a baby girl and named her Nora. There are so many new babies in my family all the time, but this one - I won't have any problems remembering her name.

    Wow. The Dahn siblings are so important to me and my life that I don't have words.

    Betsy Q. - I'm all for the world having more Noras! That can only be a good thing.

    Buzz-Nom - And the Dahn siblings love YOU!

    Sarah - The Dahn siblings would not be the Dahn siblings without the Cooks. Indelible impact.
