Aside from the fact that I logged in to find 238 spam comments, everything is going well for us. On Friday night, my son (in Hawaii) phoned to tell me how much he loves and misses us. He was at my youngest brother’s house celebrating my sister-in-law’s birthday. She’s 29 again!(for the umpteenth time). So he put her on the phone and I wished her a happy birthday. Then she put my other brother’s wife on the phone and we talked for a little while before she put my brother on the line. We talked about my aunt’s recent passing and how nice it was to see the cousins who live on the big island. Then he said my son was singing in the background to Darren Benitez singing El Burro Socarron. He wasn’t singing background, it was more of the ay yay yay thingie. My brother put the phone near my son so I could hear him. When my son came back on the line I asked if he was singing. He said, “Hello mom, you know I can’t sing.”

This is true. (more…)
