Orange Crate Art turns seventeen later today. It has reached its full height but continues to develop muscles. And its voice is deepening. Time to start thinking about college.

They grow up so fast!

OCA needs friends to chip in for gas money. (But hopes to buy an electric car with savings from its after-school job.)

Happy Birthday, Older Brother!
l'astronave, who is almost thirteen, hopes she hasn't misgendered you, but the mention of deepening voice without concomitant distress suggests male gender identity?

Michael Leddy said...

Yes, Orange Crate Art is a he. I borrowed those traits from a couple of websites about adolescent development.

Now my blog is saying "they" are nonbinary.

NOT to mock, but it's so au courant of them, at fourteen.
(My math was off--l'astronave was born Oct. 7, 2007.)
