Evening
The Red Sox are playing the Yankees, their historic rivals, in the fourth game of a five game set tonight. They have lost the first three games, in fairly humiliating fashion. To have any hope of catching the Yankees, more or less they absolutely must have both tonight’s game and tomorrow’s. They’re leading in this one, but only by one run. I’m not too optimistic.
Your Aunt Debbie went to see your Mom yesterday, and apparently they talked about girl stuff. I think Aunt Debbie can help your Mom with some of the special girl to girl things about having a baby, and that’s important.
Tiger Woods won the PGA Championship today, which was his 12th major championship in his professional career. The only person who has more is Jack Nicklaus, who won 18. Tiger might be the best golfer of all time, and it is special to think that, before he retires, you will get to see him play. Your grandfather loves golf, and I think you will see a lot of it on TV at his house. You don’t have to watch it, though. Your grandfather is very tolerant of Rick, and pretty much lets him do what he wants, so I’m sure you will get to watch whatever program you want. As soon as you can talk, that is.
