I am so bad with dates. Thanks for sharing your special ones!
Actually, Amanda, you are only partially correct. I DO have a good memory, and I did not need the aid of my diary for any of these dates. (If you'll notice, most of them occurred on the same day as another special event in my life, so it made it easier to remember) Glad you're reading the blog more now that you're in Austin...Norah the explorer misses you.
