We both wear pants, so we had to figure out who was going to be in charge . . . This picture was taken Easter weekend, 2000, in Rockford, Ill.  Linda and I were dating at the time and we went to Rockford so that Linda could see the family, especially Aunt Kathy.  She had been sick for a little bit, and I wanted Linda to meet her.

We still haven’t figured out who’s in charge.  We ask the kids when we really need to know . . . No really . . . for all of you who are worried that we really let the kids rule the house . . . I’m in charge.  Linda said it was okay.
