Meet Coraline and her parents, Sarah and Brian. We invited Cora to visit for a few days and she asked her parents to accompany her.
It has been a fun visit. We've had our picture taken at the "Southernmost Point," walked the length of Duval Street, checked out Captain Tony's, strolled along the marina boardwalk, had dinner on the waterfront at Geiger Key Fish Camp, visited Bahia Honda state park, played on the backyard beach, and went for walks to the neighborhood park and playground where Cora enjoyed the swings and the slide. She especially loves the hot tub. Yesterday we celebrated her ten month birthday.
Her mom and dad are less than a year into the parenting experience but have taken the addition to their twosome completely in stride. They are confident and at ease dealing with the daily demands of an infant. For her part, Cora is quick to smile and laugh and, if she is frustrated or otherwise believes there is a cloud in her sky, the smile is back in the next instant.
Cora is the first "grand-niece" on my side of the family. (Her counterpart on Billy's side of the family is Caroline, the one-year-old daughter of Kathy Cipriani Trobee and her husband Ryan. We hope to see her this summer.) It has been a joy to get to know her a bit. Hope you enjoy getting to meet her as well.
