Happy Tangen Family News!
They say you are only as old as you feel. That makes me either 62 or 5 depending on when the aspirin kicks in.
I threw out my back today trying to help my youngest daughter (Vivian) learn how to walk. Her big sister (Abbie) and myself were working pretty hard to get the littlest Tangen member to become a biped today. As it turns out, it worked. With just a little encouragement from her big sister, Vivian cleared the whole living room floor without falling. This was repeated several times (we had to verify that it wasn't a fluke).
It is with this information that I am putting my stamp of approval on it. With Abigail's help, Vivian Ruby Tangen took her first steps (without falling) and accurately maneuvered around a room at just under 11 months of age. I am such a proud Dad.
Either the aspirin is kicking in or the thoughts are making me feel better already.
