Madison and David returned from an amazing (soon to be 10 year old) trip to London. Needless to say, they had a great time and made so many memories together. In David's words, "It was awesome how many times she'd just grab my hand as we walked down the street."

They visited Tower of London, British Museum (twice), Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace and Horse Guards Parade, rode the London Eye, ate Thai food, had sandwiches in the park, saw ravens the size of Madison's head, went to church on Easter Sunday at our church from when we lived there, went to meetings with David's clients, and just generally spent more one-on-one time together than they've ever been priviledged to spend in her short 9 (almost 10) years on this earth.

We are grateful and so proud of the amazing girl she is becoming. David is not such a bad dad, either. She couldn't say enough about her thankfulness for him and his eagerness to spend so much time with her.

Memories are made of this!!

How blessed you are to have the time and resources for such a trip but most of all the "Intentionality" (Probably not a word but you know....)

Love. Mom, Gran, Rosie
