A lovely spring day for my son Trent's 15th birthday. We woke him early for peanut butter brownies and presents. We gave him a beautiful watch and a new set of binoculars for birding as well as an autobiographical journal just like his dad uses. The grandmas called, and he got cards in the mail. Best of all, he got his driving permit! A bit scary, but a fun morning of riding with Trent as he fulfilled his (literally) life-long ambition to drive! He did well, although we had one close call with a mailbox. No big deal. I just closed my eyes and used lots of caffeine, and we made it through:-)
So proud of this beautiful, charming, smart, funny, handsome guy. We'll party seriously Saturday with all of the family, a big cake, and yes, an electric guitar and amplifier for his 'big' present. Can't wait to see him take off with this musical adventure!
A shout out to my friend Melissa Pratte, who is in Kansas City, living the good life. Restaurants, sushi, stuffed grape leaves, a potential summer job at our favorite spot. Oh, did I mention she is an awesome English teacher and literary scholar? Now if we could just find her a lovely man....
