For year 2, I decided to write a bit about Owen. I think one of the things that has surprised us most about this experience was the amount of courage it would require from each of us, but especially our kids.

Our 3rd and last winter here in France, it's no surprise that we wanted to get as much out of the Alps as we possibly could before we move back to (mostly) sunny South Carolina. This time around, we had to do a little more planning on the front end, now that we have a… Continue reading Méribel 3
