I received email last night from the Kid Brother. Email! His wonderful family, the staff at AHRC NYC, took him to buy a mobile phone and immediately set up an email account for him. He’s already taking pictures and sending them to me.

| FIFTH AVENUE AND 54TH STREET. (MOMA IS ON 53RD BETWEEN FIFTH AND SIXTH.) |
Yesterday afternoon, they went to MOMA (the Museum of Modern Art) where I’m told he really enjoyed himself. Along with a slightly blurry street scene, the Kid Brother also shared a couple of even blurrier photos of his favorite artworks, and a close-up of his own artistic creation inspired by his day at MOMA. Of course, I like his creation the best.

It was 2 a.m. when the messages came in, but I happened to be up and immediately sent him a quick (and simple) note. This morning, I sent him photos of the cats.

| A KID BROTHER ORIGINAL. |
So, now not only can we speak on the phone every weekend (and, hopefully, one of these days on FaceTime), but I can also email a brief note and photo to him every day just to feel connected.

| NOW IF THEY COULD JUST GET HIM TO SHOW SOME EXCITEMENT!!! |
If the Kid Brother were to watch this video, he would say, “You’re a nut!!!”
