An Invitation

I have some favorites. There was the one that started "Jennifer Elizabeth and James Andrew, together with our parents..." from about six years ago. And then a really special one, for a really special little girl's first birthday, that used this photograph:

We've been issued an invitation recently. It's not the kind to which you can RSVP regrets. It will require twenty four/seven attendance, and attire isn't an issue, as long as we're cloaked in courage. It isn't fair. But, we have to do it. It's impossible. Impossible, impossible. But we will do it. We'll saddle up and ride. And we know many of you, our blog readers, will be riding with us, will carry part of our load, will be behind us all the way. And that will make the journey less burdensome.

And good hair days, those help when you've been invited somewhere -whether you're eager or hesitant to go - too, right?
