Adam, your kids always seem so happy together. I think you and CY do a great job of parenting them.

Thanks Jennifer. I was afraid you might hold a grudge against Katherine because she didn't hug you at the Christmas party.

I am probably being dumb here but am I right in thinking that encore and sprout are pet names for your kids and not their actual Western names? :eh:

Correct. Willow (Sprout) arrived first and was such a delight we opted for an Encore... and along came Keira.
