he's about 6'1" now, Nilly
So I won't have to bend my head to pet dogs in the street with him, like I did when I was lucky enough to visit y'all in SF, ha? He'll have to fold himself over in order to see that strange person speaking to his elbow.
a senior in HS looking at college.
Does he have any specific ideas regarding where he wants to go and what he wants to do there? Baseball-related or others?
(Sorry for the Natter. I'm just - he looks like such a young man in those pictures! I remember the pictures from when Matilda was born and her babyhood and infancy, and he looked like such a big boy in them, like the most wonderful older brother she could ever wish for. And it was a lot to process even then, because - like those pictures in the gallery - he suddenly jumped into adolescence in my mind. And now it's a completely whole another new phase - it's like the man is emerging from the boy, with such a self-assured good-humored expression in his face, so present - you can imagine not only the teenager that he is now, but also glimpses of the man he'll get a chance to grow into (it's not just the suit and the hair and the pose, I think, too. It's the expression on his face. It's such a mature-yet-not one). I'm babbling. I'm sorry. He looks great, is all, and I hardly get a chance to post with you somewhere you can see it in order to tell you.)
OK, I'll shut my keyboard up now.
