Lynette, I loved your comments about how Jordan fixed those make shift earplugs for your son at the movies. Jordan always had sensitive hearing himself and he would complain that noises were too loud when he was younger. Once when he was about six or so I took him to a play in NYC about Jack and the Beanstalk. He got so scared that he insisted we leave our front row seats and go find seats up in the balcony where we would be more safe. He was afraid that the monster was real and coming onstage soon and would hurt us. So there we sat for the entire play, crouched behind the balcony wall hiding from the monster as the play went on. One of my nicest memories. I guess he is now up in the balcony looking down at us as we carry on in our our plays. At least I sure hope so. I just did another piece about Jordan called Carrying the Torch in one of my columns. I will post it to Steve and maybe he can post it in the WORDS section of this website. Also I would love to see people write a poem about themselves and Jordan and post it there as well so I could read it. Thanks again for your support Lynette. Tom
