Man, o man, there are A LOT of birthdays in our family in August!
Today, John Palmer Hicks, III turns, I believe, 35? Can it be true?
I still think of you, Jape, as that cute skinny kid who loved backhoes. And my favorite JP line of all time is . . . After the skinny 5 year old had been helping Jim in the yard of our newlywed bungalow in Tucson, I went out to ask if they needed anything (thinking the answer would be "cold water" or "lemonade," etc.) JP's reply "Yeah, how about a PAYCHECK?" ;)
JP, it is my inicredible good fortune to have a younger brother to look up to and admire. Thank you for the example you have been to me of living a righteous life. You are a man of kindness, integrity and good humor. Hey . . . haven't I read that somewhere recently?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOHN, and may you live to bless us all many more years!

Happy birthday jp!! (Oh and ps for anyone who has read the blog in the last two days, that wasn't matt posting yesterday, it was a joke from someone apparently).
Hey there - Thanks much for the very kind words. Kind words from kind people.
Oh, and I'm still waiting for that PAYCHECK too. You've got my address . . .
Oh - and FYI, it's 29, not 35.
:-)
