    On our cisatlantic shore
    For family after family name.
    We’ll make it three hundred more

    Family values are a little like family vacations—subject to changeable weather and remembered more fondly with the passage of time. Though it rained all week at the beach, it’s often the momentary rainbows that we remember.
