Birthday shared with Lee

Mark, our youngest son, observed his birthday Monday, January 19, sharing the day with one of my heroes, Robert E. Lee.  In a recent American Legion poll, Lee was included among America's favorite heroes, as was Stonewall Jackson. 

I tried to persuade Jen to wait until January 20 to have the baby because that was the day Reagan was installed as president. Women are stubborn  about those things;  I can remember she even got angry at my suggestion.
