Today is Frank's birthday. It is also Jennifer's mom's memorial service. We will celebrate both of life's milestones . . . one with joy the other with solemn grace.
We marked Frank's birthday last night at our favorite haunt on the river. We only go there on special occasions. Not exactly Micky D's if you get my drift. Katie and I had been plotting. She snuck into town when he was at the gym and parked her car on his side of the garage, disabled the garage door opener and closed the verticals on the window and waited. He barged in the front door, grumbling about the garage door not working (we were peeking the whole time), and ran smack into Katie. You should have seen his face light up. She drove back to school after dinner but it was so worth it.
p.s. She is definitely her mother's child. She bought him a gift certificate to a sports store up at college . . . . so he will have to drive up for a visit!!!!
