Kmac at 22

Kmac came for a visit Friday November 5th. His birthday 22 years ago! That sounds so unbelievable. Funny how the visions of your children as children never leave your mind. I will never forget how after we had put him to bed in his crib he showed up in the living room and Bray and I both looked at each other wondering if the other had taken him out;neither of us had. He had climbed out alone! And just to make sure we put him back in and waited to see if he would do it again. Without a word and a sound he showed up again. We knew then that he was ready for a big boy bed. I suppose we will tell and retell the story of how Brayde dropped me off at the hospital, got me settled in to labor for Kindred and then left to go and play his alumni basketball game at St. Edward's. I said he could but, looking back I can't believe I did.
He came back though and even though I can't really remember that clearly I am going to say that they won!

Kmac and Jmac shoulder to shoulder!
