Birthday

Today's my son's birthday. It's tempting to launch into a sentimental post that would be impossible to read, even for me.

But I will say that this day is the anniversary of one of the best days in my life. I'm grateful that he's here. I'm proud of him, and he's made my life richer and better by his presence.

We'll go down to a Brazilian steak house later. His choice. One of our few family traditions.

He'll never really know how glad I'll be to be sitting across the table from him.
