[Photograph by James Leddy.]
That’s my mom Louise Leddy and me. My dad Jim made a notation in the baby book next to this photograph: B.M.
Today seems like an appropriate time to say that our daughter Rachel and her husband Seth are going to have a baby girl, due in October. Which means that my mom, Rachel’s Grandma Louise, will soon be someone’s great-grandmother. And Elaine and I will soon be grandparents. Grandparents? But we’ve always been “a nice young couple.” [Insert moment of stunned silence.]
Happy Mother’s Day to all.
