In other news, today marks the 10th anniversary of my father's death. It's strange that it's been so long; strange to think how much has happened since he passed. At that time Alexandra was only 17 months old and I was just a few months along with Lorelai. When I went down to California to say my final goodbye's, Alexandra entered the hospital room wearing a shirt that said "Big Sis 2004". It was bittersweet, the news of a new life is always exciting, but he knew - we all knew - that he would not be there to meet her.

Lorelai Leigh was born later that year in October - her middle name in honor of my Dad, whose name was Lee.
