On a White Sandy Beach of Hawaii

His Number 1 Fans

Last weekend, my youngest brother V graduated from high school. He was asked to perform at the graduation, where he entertained a crowd of nearly one thousand people. We were impressed with his singing and guitar skills, he's a man of many talents. Even though there were crowds of girls hoovering around him, he managed to step away and acknowledge his number 1 fans.

Like Mother, Like Daughter

A and I grew up together, we were in the same 1st,3rd, and 4th grade classes. She was my first best friend, we've known each other for over twenty years. We've supported each other with school endeavors, marriage and starting families. A moved to the Boston area a year ago, and we now have three daughters between the two of us. This year, we celebrated Mother's Day together, we've come a long way since Desert View Elementary School and playing on the basketball team. It will be fun to see the cycle of friendship continue with our daughters.
