Dear Reader:
Happy Father’s Day! And in our family today… a special alignment of the stars celebrating Happy Father’s Day and Happy Birthday to Rutledge! Walsh and Rutledge Day!
Ten years ago today ” ” Baby Rutledge” entered our lives to the delight of everyone, but especially Walsh… arriving officially on Father’s Day!!! Walsh has always repeated it was his best Father’s Day present ever! And now ten years later the happy phenomenon is re-occurring!
Rutledge will be in transit today on his birthday… ( with Walsh) after playing a Delaware lacrosse team and then flying to Asheville to join Lachlan at Camp Ridgecrest for Boys for the next two weeks! My head is spinning just trying to keep up!
I, also want to give a shoutout to all the men -uncles, friends, grandfathers, coaches, teachers, dual role single parents who step up to the bat filling in as caregiver and father figures! I salute you!
Happy Birthday Rutledge! A dual number -10-Happy Benchmark Birthday!
I love you Rutledge… my oldest grandson! I am so proud of your accomplishments but am just especially proud of you for being you and filling my life with light! P. S. Look under your camp bunk bed pillow… Boo might have left something! 
So until tomorrow…
Today is my favorite day -Winnie the Pooh
