Happy Birthday!

ArtToday (May 13) is my brother’s birthday. My little brother. My baby brother. At our first meeting, I disappointed my mother by ignoring her and the little bald package in her arms so I could continue reading (well, looking at—I was only 2 1/2) my book. I have over the (many, many) years grown to appreciate him, and now I love him even more than books. Happy birthday, Arthur Lipski, Jr., who will always be Duffy to me. I love you.
