Happy Birthday to Suzie, the youngest of the Cox Clan! Today you enter the teen years: so fun, but so full of pitfalls... You're beautiful, you're good, you're committed, you're strong physically and spiritually, you're talented, and you're the baby of the family! Don't let that last aspect mess up all the others! Know, every day, that you have a large mob of family and countless others who love you and are cheering for you today and always!
This entry is from a hotel room in Portland, Oregon while I'm traveling with Tim and not with Suzie on her big day. (Thanks, Packards and Mel, for making it fun in our absence!)As Mel declared last time, we are the worst bloggers - Dan and Emmi even verified it when Tim and I visited them. The truth hurts, but it's still the truth... Well, I'm not promising to turn over any new leaves, but I am promising there will be a new highly visual entry soon - and it will be worth the wait for anyone who still bothers with us - after I am through traveling and can sit down in front of the computer to update.
This is a different kind of entry for me; why must I always blog with pictures, you may ask -- Why not just some comments now and then, so at least there are entries? Good question, since many of you do that and I enjoy YOUR entries. I guess I have to confess that I am a kid when it comes to reading: I like pretty pictures in books, and I always read the captions under the pictures before I read anything else on the page -newspapers and magazines especially. Yes, the truth is, I am a visual junkie, perhaps even more than a word bird. No wonder I'm no longer a journalist. I savor others' words much more than my own, but feel mine are unworthy without a picture to go with them.
So there you have it. No tag game, just true confessions from an unfocused blogger and computer user. So don't give up on us or cease to believe that we exist. Just don't expect much and you'll never be disappointed! Talk to you soon (with pictures, of course)!

Well, I have to apologize to YOU. I have made it a habit not to drop in to your blog when checking every one else's out, (cause it isn't updated as often as some - like I write much!) and you are certainly great to read and see. Love your much and I'm jealous of you and Portland, I want to end up there - maybe.
Hey Carla,
I to don't ever know what to say and I also like to have pictures, so I don't blog when I don't have any pics to show. I am so glad that you do have this blog though, so I can catch up on all of you. As you can see I don't phone people either. Take care and when in town if ever, come see us.

HELLO to all of my FAVORITE COXES!! The ND COXES!!
I'm SOOOOOOO glad I found you again after all these years Karla!! I can't believe it - how wonderful is the internet???
I'm looking at all these beautiful pictures of your family and I just can't believe they (we)'ve grown up so much!! I remember when Josh and Mel were in Joy School together! :*( Is it really possible that they're now in HIGH SCHOOL?
She's still as beautiful as she ever was - and Suzie!! that little curly-headed beauty is amazing still. How does it happen? I still secretly hope that Josh and Mel grow up and find each other and get married. :) (SHHH - Don't tell!)
It's great to get in touch with you again - if you send me your email address - I'll send you an invite to my blog (I have a private one) and you can catch all the pics of my family too.
Love you so much Karla!! You don't know how often I still think of you...
Hope to hear from you soon!! Marci (Herring) Merrell - the old piano teacher!
PS - Address is ticklesivories@yahoo.com (of course.. :)
