Happy Earth Day!
. . . . . . . . . . . .
And also Happy 18th birthday to my dear son, John!
I was telling John that he was born in the middle of the night, and the next morning I watched all the Earth Day celebrations from around the world while lying in the hospital bed with him. So he really is my Earth Child. He quipped that he is also my "Middle Earth Child," which is just as true. As a middle child, he never thinks he gets enough attention, but last night we watched him play his beloved guitar in the high school talent show, and I was so proud because he has never played in front of so many people before, and he's shy. Most of his friends and teachers didn't even know he was musical. But he looked like a rock star on stage. He's also about to graduate in two weeks or so, he's got the Prom at the end of this week, and he's getting his driver's license this afternoon. So he can't say he's lacking attention now!
