Stop and Give This a Little More Thought



Today was my older son's 20th birthday.  That's  him in the picture above when he was about two years old, I think.  He is playing in the back yard with one of his Dad's golf clubs.

Right now, he's away at college, so it didn't seem quite right to not see him for his birthday.  Between the three of us here at home, we did email, text, and call him today, though.  HA HA HA!  He will be home for the holiday break this weekend.  So we will see him then.



We sent him the card pictured below.  It made me laugh.  Hope he liked it too.  Click on the image to enlarge it if you are squinting at the little letters like me.



The inside of the card had a picture of the cat playing happily with the third ball of yarn.   

Sometimes the simplest things bring the most joy.  I hope my son found some joy in his special day today.  I know it will bring me joy to have him home for the holiday.  I miss him.  Happy birthday, Kiddo.
