warmth!
After a very wintery summer season, we are enjoying a rare Scottish heat wave! Well, it’s not what most Americans would consider a heat wave, but it is warm enough to wear shorts and sandals and feel quite comfortable doing so. Amazing, as there were plenty of days in July and August when I was wore wool sweaters and shearling slippers in the house. (You are reading that correctly.) Today Aidan and I celebrated by going for a run (wearing shorts!) in the morning and taking a walk in the afternoon. It is glorious, and something to hold in mind during the short, dark, chilly days of winter. Scotland can be beautiful!

Hi, I’m glad you are finally blogging. I check out all our friends blogs about once a week. So I’ll be sure to put you in the favorites and check on you often. Please put some pictures, I really want to see how Aidan is growing.

I’m glad you included the piece about Grandma taking Aidan to the park and encouraging his love of GRAVEL.
As is my custom, I will copy your effort and start my own blog. What a funny word, B L O G.
You are all such a blessed family. I am so happy for you all.
Love, Mom

Hi Rachel,
Your blog’s a great idea. I should get back to doing mine. (Hey, I’ll read yours if you read mine!) I agree that photos of the little guy would be great. I’m so glad that you guys are doing well up there. We will be in the neighborhood, visiting friends in Dublin in early October.
Love you lots, Phil and Siggie
