We have two daughters. Our oldest is 30, single (and looking...hahaha), and lives in her own home about 5 miles from us. She is a reporter for the Arizona Republic daily newspaper (Phoenix metro), and covers City Hall, the Mayor and various related issues important to city development.

Our younger daughter is about to turn 27, and has been married a little over a year to a special agent for the FBI. She lives in Alexandria, Va., and is the press secretary to a US Congressman from Tucson, AZ.

My son-in-law is about to turn 30, graduated from Notre Dame, earned his CPA, then decided after 9/11 to enter the FBI. He graduated first in his training class at the academy and he works in a counter-terrorism unit.

They are all three great young adults (I consider my son-in-law my 3rd kid); I am very proud of all of them and lucky they belong to me!
