Today is my first son's 9th birthday! Although he doesn't use Steemit, I wish he'd be able to find time to look at this message from Mommy. He likes trains and Japan so much, and, in fact, thinks he's Japanese, so I'll just post something Japanese for him at Steemit, if I have the time today. Anyway, Otanjoubi Omedetou, Joshua (or Joshiro, according to him)! (I hope I got the Japanese birthday message right, my Japanese friends.)
