22!

Twenty two years ago (tomorrow) I was born. Here's a picture of me and my sisters at 24 days old on Christmas day, 1985. Can you guess which one is me? (a little take-off from Kay's guessing game post).



If that was too hard, here's a picture from 7 months later where clothing gives a clue:

(Hmm...why did my parents save this particular photo?)

PS - No guessing, sisters! Happy birthday to you, too!

Birthday celebrations

As many of you know, thanks to Connie and Steve Kuusisto, today is my birthday, my 21st to be exact. Yes, now I am legal.

When I was little, I would eagerly look forward to my birthday, particularly my birthday parties. Whether it was playing freeze tag in a swimming pool, going to a Chicago Wolves ice hockey game, or playing basketball with a hoop that was lowered to my level, I had good times with my friends, playing games suited to my abilities and going to events that were wheelchair accessible. During my birthday parties, my differences didn't matter. I was just a boy having fun with his friends.

Thank you for the birthday wishes,

David
