Comment on 3 Things from our June Camping Trip by Rich Fink

Awesome idea Tartan! I often think about buying in an RV or trailer but I still haven’t pulled the trigger. We’re getting ready to embark for our annual summer road trip so maybe 3 weeks of tent camping and AirBnB’s will push me over the threshold. I’ll watch this space for inspiration:-).

The kids are so BIG. I can remember when the first ones were born. Enjoyed the summary of the year. Sorry to hear about your dad Naomi. I am still in AK teaching, but likely will retire early at the end of the 2023/24 school year and head back to OK to help with my parents who are still trucking along. Hope all else is well with you. Love, susan

Comment on 2012 Christmas Letter – just a little late by The Truemans

Hi Naomi, just to say I've been remembering you and the family throughout the past year and very especially over the festive period. It still wrenches my heart whenever I think about what happened - I think the fact that our Emma was just two months older at the time made it all the more accute... Anyway, thank you for the update with all the exciting news that you're all getting up to! Please know that the prayers of our church continue for you - maybe one day we'll see you all again Scotland... All our love, Heather, Dougie, Sophie and Emma xxxx
