Hello dear family and friends! I hope 2022 was a fine year for you--as it was for me! Though I am now going into the office a day a week, and we have had many in person meetings. These are much more demanding than the Zoom meetings we had during the pandemic but at least there are cookies. I look forward to having all my children (except Arabella! Maybe next year?) home for Christmas--PLUS all four of my beautiful grandchildren! In other news, the three cats are doing well. |

Aaron had a great year, achieving his two goals by succeeding in growing many flowers at his home in Annandale and earning the title of "King of Halloween," in Estonia by providing spooky displays to several houses and candy to hundreds of trick or treaters. He continued his habit of road trips to Savannah, stopping along the East Coast to fish. In 2023 he expects to spend more of his time in Estonia, working on his business and relaxing with his girlfriend,Leyla. |

Arabella moved to San Francisco to get her joy back! She did another happiness project that involved many trips to farmers markets, museums, parks, beaches and more! She found a wonderful boyfriend named Luke from Colorado along the way and is proud to say that she got her joy back and then some! |

Beatrice and Dino had a grand time with family in Savannah this April, and then enjoyed a holiday in Greece in August--revisiting the beautiful island of Ios where Beatrice spent so many happy times, and where Dino celebrated his first birthday. Then back to New York so Dino could start FIRST GRADE! He is learning to read and write and is altogether a brilliant boy, on track to become a mad scientist as is his ambition.

Jacob, Gloria, Hudson, and Nova had a busy year in Los Angeles. We celebrated Nova’s first birthday and Hudson’s fourth birthday with a treasure hunt at the beach. We went to San Diego and had a blast visiting the Harnish family. Hudson is busy with soccer, gymnastics, and ballet. Nova looks up to Hudson and can’t wait to play with the big kid Legos.

Joy and Lawrence and Kairos had a good year, with a visit to the USA in April featuring not only an exciting Easter egg hunt at Grandma Hope’s house but also a trip to Savannah, where Kairos met her cousin Dino for the first time. They had some fine times at Tybee beach! Then back to Leeds where Lawrence has been working on the house next door which they bought in order to rent it--to Lawrence’s Mum! Then off they flew to Menorca for a fab fab holiday on the beach. Then BACK to Leeds—and looking forward to Christmas in the USA!
