This I Believe

Matthew's birthday was just a couple of days ago, Sept. 3. A perfect day for him to get the news that an essay he wrote was published on NPR's website, on their "This I Believe" section. This I Believe is reminiscent of a similar project done in the 50's. Matthew's entry is based on an experience he had on a train in Chicago.

Alyx has entered the building.

We delivered Alyx to school last week. She's attending Columbia College, and is happy as a clam to be in downtown Chicago. We lugged her stuff from the airport to the train, to Matthew's apartment, then to her dorm room on the 22nd floor of her building. Still can't believe we now have two of our kids in Chicago.
