Today is Ruth's birthday. Although she isn't hiding the number, I won't say which one this is... but with this many friends gathered around, it's obviously significant. We are all glad she was born.

Normally in these matters the birthday girl would be the picture for the day, but something significant gave that spot to her grandson Garrett. When I came into his house, he shook hands with me, smiled, and with a huge grin asked me if I could tell what had happened to him. He lost his first tooth... the tooth fairy left five bucks and forgot to take away the tooth, so he is hoping for more. He's not sure how the system works. Neither am I.
