(No Title)i remember visiting my father one day when scott was a two-year-old. i couldn't wait to tell my dad about the latest, greatest thing the baby had accomplished. (hmmm, i should have written it down, since i'm struggling 19 years hence to know what it was.) "daddy," i enthused, "it's a milestone!" "Milestone! the kid's not even in kindergarten yet!" i hadn't realized until tonight what made him knee-jerk like that. his first son never made it to kindergarten, much less to age sixteen. he was born with heart disease, died after open-heart surgery at age four, never really had any milestones. only millstones. dad, i hope you understand why i kept marking milestones in my children's lives. i hope you know how often i stop and remember ours.
