Reputation carries much impact when we find ourselves in circumstances like this. We train others in how to interpret what they see and hear about us. Your previously demonstrated character set the stage for mom’s gracious response.
I was one of those boys! I don’t remember the glove box incident, but I do remember you had us listening to the Beastie Boys way when we were way to young to understand them 🙂
Amy, I was the mom in your story. I remember you so well, and I was so grateful for your love for our boys and the ways you affirmed them and enjoyed being with them. I don’t remember the pot incident at all. Thanks for affirming me as a mom! I’m delighted you’re still in touch with Mike, and I’m so happy to see your cartooning work. Well done. Wishing you all the best.
Thank you, Lynne! This means a ton. My family and I moved back to our street almost two years ago and I find myself thinking of you all often. Hope you are very well!

Thanks so much for your comment – I really appreciate it!
Amy, I didn’t know any of those stories!
Really??!!

You WERE one of those boys! And this comment makes my day. (Glove box must’ve been your brother. Shudder.)

Amy, it’s cool to picture you on that street, I hope our paths cross one day.
