  • Happy Birthday Sarah!

    It amazes me to see Sarah turn 14. The time has flown by so quickly. She has grown into a remarkable young lady. Her academics are impressive. She is athletic and social. She has great confidence and is very well rounded. I only wish she could learn to express feelings. She is a wonderful daughter and very good to her siblings. We are fortunate to have Sarah in our lives. Happy Birthday!

    Amy: "Dad, I heard you sing that once."

    Update: I’m not sure I understand this statement: "They cause more accidents, more delays, more gas and more road rage." I have used toll roads as a passenger or driver most of my life and they have always seemed fine by me. Matter of fact, they are always in better repair than other roads. The only trouble I have ever seen is in approaching an unmanned toll and not having any change.
