Yes, today is my son’s 38th birthday! How can this be? I am SOOOO young, that it just doesn’t seem possible!
Matthew was born on July 3, 1971 in Falls Church, Virginia outside of Washington, DC. At the time, Harry was a lieutenant in the Fairfax County Fire Service, and we were living in Vienna. My, how times have changed! Here is a picture of him, in his patriotic garb, on his first birthday!
Just look at him now!…. well, almost now. This was taken nearly two years ago at a wedding reception for a close family friend. Matthew is a BIT taller than I am! Is he not a darlin’?!

We are immensely proud of him, and have been from the moment of his birth. If you follow my blog, you know that he is a film editor in Hollywood, and is now engaged to Joan Kelley Bierman – the love of his life , and the absolute delight of ours! We are fortunate to have them in our lives.
Hope everyone is having a terrific holiday. Be safe, relax, think about our freedom and the many blessings we have, and be most grateful for family!
