Kaleb's Birthday
Today is Kaleb's birthday, he is 13, a teenager. I called the school and told them that he wasn't coming in, his mother was going to hide presents in the morning with a series of notes as to where he could find them( sort of like a treasure hunt ) and we were going to let him sleep in. But of course he got up at the crack of dawn ( seams to him it is like Christmas morning ) and most of our plans were thwarted.
I will take half the day off and go home to play video games under the woman's orders I am not to paint, just spend time with him. The next painting is nearly finished "Vegas Vic", although when I would refer to the name of it Kaleb thought it was the "Chillicothe Man" but he has never been to Vegas.

Hey, Tom,
Just love all your new work. But today,I want to thank you for being a great Dad! Your son will always remember how much you loved him. Even when you wanted to paint! At least he won't grow up resenting your art! Great testimony!
