What do a six-pound niece, a gauzy white dress, 11 overnight guests, a purple bee-stung hand, 100 + yards of pink tulle, 20 cans of chicken, wet underpants, thunder at a swimming pool, a sweet nineteen-year-old in pre-term labor, 30 gold picture frames, a laundry room crammed to the brim with stuff, 11 days of rain, 12 or more hours on the computer organizing photographs, a funeral, and a sprinkler on the lawn have in common?

They're all important parts of the last two weeks.
