Let me tell you something: I'm an Islander at heart. I say, with sincerity, that I love the city. But few things feel as fulfilling and exhilarating as the slow ocean breeze, riding my bike underneath the transient summer sun.

Ryan and Monica are visiting home for a week, and its been nice to have their company: Ryan's silly energy and Monica's sweetness and warmth.

Watching videos of PS22 Chorus almost makes me cry. They are so cute, and Mr. B seems wonderful.
