Birthday

Jennie, 14 years ago, your only son came into this world. With me and grandma there with you. 

I remember how brave you were. And how happy. 

He’s got a happy day planned. He sounds good. He’ll be thinking of you. He’s a good person. Loving. To me he acts polite at best. Our special bond has been broken.
