Are you nervous?

Did something just feel off yesterday?
Kinda eerie, like the world shifted.
Fathers pulled their teenage daughters, closer.
Drivers gripped their steering wheels, tighter.
Pedestrians, hurriedly shuffled across the road.

It was almost, as if, something was let loose into polite society.
I could hear, a feirce growl of freedom, as a nearly rabid Bulldog, dug out of his yard and took to the streets....
with a mother's scream, faintly drifting in the breeze, long into the night.

Happy 16th, Two!



To the greatest, big brother, assistant baseball Coach and Official Tink-walker-to-the-concession-stand....
You carry tremendous responsibility, with ease.
Continue to strive to find your niche, with a zest that makes me proud.
You are the snappiest dresser, practically a model, for Abercrombie.
I wish for you, years of safe driving, a cute little girlfriend to grace your passenger seat and many hours of productive studying to earn that 'Good student discount'!
Most of all, I wish to turn this Bulldog into a Trojan....cuz your complexion and extremely stylish hair, were made for Kelly Green!
I hope your 16th birthday, yesterday (and yes, I really did know, it was yesterday) was a great one.
We love you.
