Post a Comment On: Internal Monologue

I'm 35 years old today. If anything, I feel I've aged more than one year this year: I started a full time job for the first time in over 7 years, and we discovered that Quinn had fragile X syndrome. It's been very hard, but I think we've all grown a lot. One bit of evidence I offer for this is that the holidays have actually not been particularly difficult for us this year. Once you've been trained in caring-for-special-needs-kids boot camp, other sorts of domestic obligations do not loom as large.

I got some great presents, and I have a surprise outing this afternoon, and steak dinner tonight. Yum!

Thanks so much to my wonderful wife Sarah and all my family for contributing to birthday wonderfulness!
