The Stars Shine Bright (56 page)

My heart is captured by family, from oldest to youngest: ninety-seven-year-old Dr. Bob Simpson still cracking wise and telling me to
do
something with my life, to seven-year-old Serena Labello, a young girl growing into a great beauty.

I cannot imagine life without my witty and wacky and wonder-filled sons. The Dynamic Duo of Daniel and Nico. Every day with you guys feels like a dream come true. And I'm blessed to live with a real-life hero: the Hunk of Italy. My husband, Joe, commands the ground war, leads our family forward, and keeps cool under strafing enemy fire.

Honey, you're the best.

It would be redundant to say that again.

But certain facts bear repeating:

Honey, you're the best.

Soli Deo Gloria
