Happy Birthday Henry!

Eleven years ago today, on another Monday morning, at 9:24am, my only child was born in Kaiser Santa Clara. I was 24 minutes into my maternity leave, and Bill missed his 9am meeting. Life has not been the same since.

Happy Birthday Henry!

This picture was from our gathering with other Feb99 families for the babies' first birthday. It's one of my favorite mother-son pictures.

This morning Henry found his mandatory acceptance letter from Hogwarts. The past weekend was our city's basketball tournament. Henry's team made it to the championship game, despite winning only two games during the season and came into the tournament as the last seed. We lost to the champion, but Henry played a great game, on Chinese New Year no less, scored, and was very happy.
