Hello, my friends, and welcome to Life with Sally podcast. I'm so glad you're here, so please make yourself a cup of tea and come on in.

Well, hello, my friends.

I'm Sally Clarkson, and I'm so very happy to have you join me today.

I got back to my mountains this weekend.

I've been spending several weeks in the U.K. Because I have one daughter who lives in London, and she's a teaching at King's College in London.

I have another son who lives in Oxford, and he's composing music and entering contests and working in the music industry as well as writing.

And then his name is Joel.

There's Joy, Joel.

And then I have Sarah.

And many of you know, my precious Sarah, and know that she had, finally, she had her fifth baby last Thursday.

So I left on Saturday, so I was able to go from London down to Oxford to see and hold that sweet baby before coming back here.

It was two weeks late, so we are so grateful that the baby came.

And it was sweet Jack, and Jack was 11 pounds.

I've never had an 11-pound baby, just two 10-pound babies out of the four that I had. But anyway,

all that to say, I am happy to be with you today. I had a nice little romp in my mountains. I live in the mountains of Colorado.

And it was beautiful yesterday. And I thought, oh, I wish people could come have a cup of coffee and we could chat and look at these beautiful views and have a fun time together.

So that's what that picture is. But today, as I mentioned to a friend, it was

35 degrees and blowing when I woke up to go for my walk. So it was quite cold. But anyway,

all that to say, I'm so glad you're here. I am so happy to be home and sleeping in my own bed,

though I always miss my children,

hopefully going to be able to visit Keelya and Nathan next.

But I'm glad you're with me today.
