And as We Wind on Down the Road

Sometimes I feel like we know what's ahead. Like all the planning we do will in fact result in something we planned to do. 

Sometimes I feel we don't know a damn thing about what's ahead.

Both are valid.  Both are scary.  Both are true.

While there is no way to plan for the unforseeables, it's great to have some things concrete.

We get to stay in D.C. area one more year.  There are mixed feelings in our family about what all this means but in short, it's a good thing.  A very good thing if you ask Grayson and Abby who don't remember living anywhere else.  They can't imagine a life without our neighbors, our hallways, our little spot here on this earth.

And sometimes neither can I.
