Remember that? For reasons in the dozens, but mostly for the tears he shed and the real sorrow we felt, this year was very different. It has been a year, invitations were made to dozens, and family friends and last year's friends, and all the mom's whose numbers I've collected and reminders were sent, and all sorts of things.. one friend was invited to come early, so the waiting for him was less onerous.... but for me? at ten past two i though i might throw up, when noone else had arrived... but then they did. lots, and fun was had and all was passed by, again. the uncles came, the cousins, the grandparents, the friends.
the boys were both! thrilled... but my nine... he was on cloud 9. really. and not just because its a cliche that matches. . . not just.
and the colors of the summer . ah... and soon the reds will arrive...
