End of the Decade

I hope the next three or four decades don't go by as fast as this past one did because I if all goes well I only have three or four decades left. In just ten years Alex will probably be designing technology for the following decade and might even have a family of his own. Valerie should be finished with college and once she ventures out from the virtual world in the basement and discovers the great big world outside who knows from where we'll be hearing from her. Elliott, who is just able to hold himself upright and say what we are sure are words will be running around and throwing and kicking balls in two languages. As significant as the kids' changes will be, the changes for Ruth and I could be as drastic, but maybe by then 60 will be the new 40.

Happy New Year/Decade.
