From My Mother’s Journal, July 1988

(five years old)

Lots of changes in our lives all at once. Your Dad got a new job at McDonnell Douglas, we are moving a short distance away, 4310 Abbott Ave., the car is having lots of problems, the family room flooded again (in house on Edgewood), just to name a few things.

You are changing in your personality, a little rebellious at times. When I’m angry or grouchy, you’re worse. You react a lot like my brother Stanley, you respond best to praise. Of course, Lora, David, and your Dad are the same when it comes to responding best to praise, but you get more cantankerous when I’m grouchy.

    I think your mom’s journal is hilarious! What’d your dad do? I used to fly on MD-80s a lot.

    Thanks! I hope she knows how funny and lovely it is.

    He actually didn’t have anything to do with the airplanes. He worked on the Delta rockets, which put up satellites.
