Happy, happy birthday to Middle.
Is this the age for a driver's license in Tuvalu?
-J.
Happy Birthday - oh, and drivers of Tuvalu BEWARE!!
I held him the day he was born. I was 17 at the time...and I thought I knew EVERYTHING back then.
Which, honestly, I may have.
Happy, happy birthday to Middle--Hope it's a great one...
My first thought? DRIVING AGE.
Yipes!
You guys are lucky to have him. And I suspect he is lucky to have you guys.
Middle sounds like a wonderful man, a wonderful friend. I look forward to having (oh please let me have) such a relationship with my children. It's clear how much you enjoy his individual nature. Good job to you, bb, for raising such a man.

Boy, sweet sixteen...how many sweet memories.
You are very lucky to have eachother and actually enjoy eachother as you do.
Piercing blue eyes...my weakness, I admit.
You made me feel wistful today.
Quite a nice photo tribute to your Middle.
Have fun!
Maybe Blogger will publish the comment before he turns 17...
Sto Lat! (Which is Polish for 100 years, and a very birthday wish.)
