The pursuit of peace and progress cannot end in a few years in either victory or defeat. The pursuit of peace and progress, with its trials and its errors, its successes and its setbacks, can never be relaxed and never abandoned. -Dag Hammarskjold 

“Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.” -Lily Pulitzer (1931-2013)

Congratulations to Sweden’s Crown Princess Victoria and her husband, Daniel, on their new baby girl, Estelle Eva Silvia Mary. They plan to call her Stella. GRATTIS!!

“Good job Bobby!”

My dad grew up in a family of all boys, he is the eldest of three. So often I’ve heard people compare my dad and uncles to the Kennedy boys: Jon, Peter, & Tim to John, Bobby, & Teddy. So much so that we’ve been incorporating the Kennedys in our everyday family speak, and I’m not sure who, but someone coined the phrase “Good job Bobby!” referring to the Kennedy brothers congratulating Bobby on a job well done. I think this all started when we used to be out on The Hopes sailboat on Lake Geneva (can any Heintzelman cousin help me with this origin?)

It doesn’t matter if we’re acknowledging a great batch of scrambled eggs or if you got a high scoring word in Scrabble, a “Good job Bobby!” always means a job well done in the Heintzelman family.
