Get Off the Curbs!!

Tomorrow is a day that came up faster than I ever imagined: it is my baby brother's sixteenth birthday. I can't believe it's been sixteen years since I saw the nurse hold up a tiny little foot and I fell in love with a wrinkled little baby.

Sixteen is a major birthday, mainly because the fledgling adult is allowed to get a driver's license. And my brother, even with all his wide turns and jerky braking, is well-prepared to receive his "license to independence." He's done a good job. He's a good kid.

At 4:38 p.m., my brother embarks on a new adventure: his life as a sixteen year old and new driver and young adult, with all the privileges and responsibilities that go along with this important birthday. If you see my David, be sure to wish him a happy birthday...and you'd better remember to stay off the curbs for awhile.

So happy birthday, Davey boy. I'm proud of the wonderful young man you've become.
