A Beautiful Day

Welcome home boys
The Blundells. Mom, Dad, Hayden and Ian.

My boys are both home! WOot!

Just a few minutes after their one week birthday we pulled into our driveway with Mr Hayden. No more trips to the NICU. The whole family is home together at last!

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It is a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I’m not a hopeless case

It’s encouraging to see.

Folks from 2 different countries, 5 different states, people that have never met my friends, are all pitching in to help in a time of need.

To help illustrate this, I put together a quick map highlighting the cities represented thus far.
