My son Dan is 20 years old today. Happy birthday, DJ.

This is one of my favorite family pictures. It’s from a couple of years ago when were were in Cancun. I asked the boys to pose for a Christmas picture. This is what they gave me. It tells a story of our family — or that we like red candy.

End of the teens for Dan. In the words on John Mellencamp, “Hold on to 16/ as long as you can/ Changes come around real soon/ make us women and men.”

    20 years old??? No way, Frank, what did you and Mrs. Frank get married when you were in grade school.

    Happy Birthday, Dan! Enjoy and welcome to adulthood .

    One of my happiest phrases to use is “my son”. Glad you get to use it often and as happily as I do.
