For some reason, I keep flashing back to your bedroom in Tallahassee. I have no idea how old you were - maybe 10. I was trying to get you and Steph to play “if you were a [“flower”, “animal”, “tree”, “color”]. I was trying to get you two to tap into your imaginations and creativity. It started out ok, but very quickly deteriorated into pure silliness. Your imaginations were running wild – just not in the way I had anticipated. Then your dad came in and stopped the craziness because you two were supposed to be sleeping – not jumping on the beds, laughing hysterically and shouting out silly answers.

Many years later, you still show that silly, goofy streak - and it's most endearing!

Happy 40th!
