M took the boys to StL to watch the Cards play the Tigers with her sisters and dad. Nate Robertson, who's pitching for the Tigers, is a childhood friend of M's from Wichita.

From an email I sent to a friend yesterday:

For our anniversary, M got me a book about one man's healing and transformative friendship with Mr. Rogers, entitled "I'm Proud Of You." It was the perfect gift. I read the first chapter out loud to M on Sat AM and we were both crying by the end.
