  1. Hi Elizabeth- I love the photo of the "summerland" sign- did you take that somewhere in LA? I'd like to know more about it. And, as always, I love your blog- both heartrending and heartening.

  4. Immediately I thought of this in Mark: "Then Jesus asked them, "Would anyone light a lamp and then put it under a basket or under a bed? Of course not! A lamp is placed on a stand, where its light will shine."
    Shine on Sophie. You are a ray of light to us all.
