Yesterday was a nice day so we packed up the stroller and took Garnett and Avery on a three-city walking tour of Shoreline, Woodway, and Edmonds. We ended up at Walnut Street Coffee in Edmonds which, if you are ever in Edmonds and need a break, is a great place; modern interior, nice people, free wireless, and good coffee.
It meant a lot to us to stop in there yesterday. Back in December 2007 we had said goodbye to Charlotte at Beck's Funeral Home, which is just around the corner in downtown Edmonds. We were walking home in the freezing rain and stopped at the cafe for something warm to drink. Inside were some new moms breastfeeding and it just about killed us to see that.
We talked yesterday about how we had come full circle, and now it was us sitting there with little babies and actually feeling happy.
