Wow, has this been an awful lot of fun. Robert and Reagan just continue to grow and become more enchanting with each passing day. I had an opportunity to spend about two hours with them last Sunday, both before and after the open house at their home. The most gratifying part of the whole interaction was to see their faces light up when I came into the room. They are just so happy to see me, and of course I just crack up laughing whenever they smile. And oh, watch out when they laugh. The hardest part is trying to equitably divide my time between them.
I can only imagine how Marie and Bob feel when either Nancy or I show up. Well, it is our job to spoil them isn’t it. We just get them all excited and wound up, and then leave up to their parents to settle them back down. Not only am I proud of the wonderful babies, but I am so excited to see how happily Bob and Marie are dealing with parenthood.
Attached are several photos of the babies. As you can see, Reagan is now sitting up all by herself. Robert tends to need a bit of support, but that will likely only be for another few days. I hope you enjoy the photos.

My current listing at 807 Clear Spring Rd. offers an fabulous opportunity to purchase a home with over 6,000 square feet of living space on two levels. Sit on the front porch and enjoy the idyllic setting proved by the nearly 3.2 acres of land. Break out your best mint julep recipe to watch the world go by out front while the kids play in the Keebler Elf style treehouse situated in the backyard play area. I don’t know it for fact, but several neighbors have said the Mother Teresa occasionally strolled the property’s trails that wandered through the trees out back. You may be able to feel her presence when viewing the “Peace Pole” that stands next to the treehouse.
Inside, the home boasts six bedrooms, five full bathrooms and two half baths. The top quality gourmet kitchen was remodeled by the current owners and includes all new cabinets, appliances and much more. The living room, dining room, and cozy family room make for a perfect flow for all your parties. The maid’s quarters/Au-pair suite with private entrance is situated adjacent to the kitchen. The remainder of the main level includes four bedrooms and three full baths.
The entire lower level (except for two closets) was also fully remodeled by the current owners. Your guests will love the two room in-law suite which includes large closets, access to a private patio and a totally remodeled bathroom with steam shower. Who could ask for more? Also found on the walk-out lower level is an abundance of space for a home theater.
In this day of some Realtors willing to do anything for that next sale, I have to relate a funny story. As all my clients know, I approach each and every one of them as someone who will help my business in the long run. No Realtor is going to make their business on one sale. On the other hand, they can certainly ruin their reputation by pressing forward a sale that would be detrimental to a client.
Two weeks ago I had the great pleasure of meeting Gene and Laura Smith during an Open House at my listing at 807 Clear Spring Rd. in Great Falls. I believed we had made a special connection and immediately realized that these were two people with whom I could be long term friends. While the Clear Spring property was not quite what they were looking for, we did run out and take a look at a number properties over the next several days. We actually found the perfect home for them in Reston on that Wednesday, put an offer in on Thursday and had a ratified contract the following Sunday.
Needless to say, Gene and Laura were thrilled with the home, but were also a bit reluctant to trust this new guy they had just met. When it came time to do the home inspection, I told them I had the perfect inspector in Steve Messerschmidt with Home Pro Services. Although Laura was comfortable with me at the time, she did ask if they could select the inspector. This of course is their perogative, but I truly believed there wasn’t a better inspector for them in Northern Virginia. Laura went ahead and contacted thier contractor friend, Taylor Smith (no relation), for suggestions on who they should use. Taylor apparently strongly endorsed Home Pro Services. Laura then called Home Pro and asked for their most experienced inspector with a knowledge of Deck Homes. One guess who they recommended. Steve did his typical 4 hour inspection and uncovered a few items that I am certain noone else would have even considered looking at. My thanks to Steve for a job well done in support of these wonderful folks.
We’re doing two open houses this week at 11742 Great Owl Circle, Reston, VA 20194. On Saturday, we’ll be there from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday we’ll be there from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
