I agree with everyone: settling is not cool. I think waiting is the hardest, when we could have 'good' right now, but the great has both the goodness and the butterflies. : ) Hope is what's cool.

Jami's so squeamish sometimes that I'm sure if she gets real mad, she'll use rat poison instead like in "Rose for Emily." But, then again . . . I've also seen how feisty she can be also, so maybe you'd better keep all sharp things under lock and key. Man, I MISS YOU TWO.

You showed emotion rather than explain it.

You should write it up for them. It shows a good kind of love. I'm glad your mom didn't settle. <br />And, Crystal, true statements.

Sometimes these talks are rare.<br /><br />I don't know much about love, but I'm really kind of counting on what your mom said.
