My brother writes short notes.
- Too cool, he said when I wrote about Mauna Kea.
- Nerd alert, he said when I wrote about Landau and Curie.
- Bad ass! he exclaimed when I wrote about Trudy’s tumble on the trail.
- Yay! he wrote when I wrote about our running class and our first run in the drizzle.
- Good job, he said when I wrote about running time trials.
- And, Yes, he wrote just now, after I asked, “Do you hear him?“
I like these notes. And I really, really liked this one. Because my brother does hear these things … um … even if I really was posing the question to a certain someone else.
