It's a very touching message.... i agree completely with you. I still do not know no one of you, except for a phone call with one of italian CH, but that unique call left me a big happiness in the hearth.
Yes we are a family, although i feel me in my home with you. And yes, other people could not understand what this "fraternity" is, only, and not completely, our wives and husbands.
When i have seen the pics of some of you, (Claudette sent me!) I have seen your faces and i have felt love raising into me. (not a joke, it's so real!) In Italy we call this immediate falling in love "colpo di fulmine" == ""lightening stroke"
.... i realize that the translation in english describe better a Cluster attack than a falling in love, but, this is my tongue...:-)
Love and pain free days for you all, and especially for you, "mom" (early mom, i'm 46!!!)
