Alexander, Here We Come!

We're off to Tampa later this week to spend the 4th with the Castros, and we are so excited. Tampa is a wonderful city, and we love to visit. We enjoy the canal and the boats right outside their condo building; the cruise ships arriving and departing just a few hundred yards away; the neighborhood restaurants we can walk to; and the lovely drives and beaches. But most of all, we enjoy seeing our daughter and her family. Little Alexander, at seventeen months, is changing so fast, and we want to see the latest changes. He is saying some words--in Portuguese and in English--and he is expressing himself in so many ways. He will have a little brother by year end, and we are excited about that, too. Alexander, here we come!
