On New Year’s Eve, I’ll join my friends to toast the days ahead. We’ll all stay up until it’s late, then eat a tasty spread. At midnight, though, I might just wish that I were home instead, sleeping very peacefully in my warm, cozy bed.

Just before Easter I remarked to my husband that, with the children grown and away from home, this was the first year that we hadn't dyed eggs and had an Easter-egg hunt.

“You were expected on Aug. 19,” she said, “but arrived on Aug. 11.”
Matthew thought for a moment and then said,
“Oh! I’m so lucky I was born on my birthday!”
