Kim, it's great that you are back in Texas! I too hope to see you and your family at the spring swap. I "lost" a son to the North for four long years, but he, his wife, and baby daughter moved to Austin from Pennsylvania last summer. Life is MUCH better with my only grandchild just 1 1/2 hours away. And her parents too, of course.
I know your parents are relieved that you are near them again.
Patricia
