Space-crazy Stephen with his planets and
space shuttle ready for launch.

My friends’ generosity never ceases to amaze me. We received a birthday package for Stephen today filled with all the things my aspiring astronaut loves: astronaut ice cream, 3-D glow-in-the-dark planets, magnet Geomag, and the IMAX Space Station DVD. And much to my surprise, we didn’t have to schlep to the post office to pick it up like we usually do when we receive packages. D and S must have some VIP connections all the way out here in no-man’s land.

THANK YOU, AUNTIE D AND UNCLE S!
