My name is James
thats what mother called me
my name is James
so its always been
sometimes I forget
when I’m lonely or afraid
and I’ll go inside my head
and look for James
There’s a city that I dreamed of
very far from here
very very far away from here
very far away
there are people in the city
that I’m dreaming of
but it’s very very far away you know
very far away
They’ll say James, James, James how are ya ?
Isn’t it a lovely day
James, James, James
were so glad you came here where we are
from so very very very far
My name is James, James, James
Happy 12th birthday, James.
I love you forever.
xoxo,
Mom

Csquaredplus3s last blog post..Hey. That was my idea.
James, may you have the most lovely day that sets the tone for the most fabulous year yet! And? I would be from a city far away if my Bo-Peep mother dressed me as a lamb. And put it on the internets because it’s so precious. It is, but you’re a manly man now.

Happy Birthday James!! Have a wonderful day!
P.S. Thank god that is a costume.
So I’m still a newbie. I had NO fucking clue that you were old enough to have a 12 year old son. I mean – I met you in person! What did you have him when you were 10????
Anyway – Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, James. Have a REALLY, Happy Birthday. 12 years old.
On my 12th birthday, which was almost 51 years ago, my Dad said to me, “Son, don’t take any wooden nickels.” I learned what he meant by that later, as I grew older. I thought it was a joke at first. But it wasn’t. It was good advice. And so, with your Mom’s permission, I’ll pass it along to you.
Don’t take any wooden nickels.

Well – this is my first time commenting here. I’m breaking my lurkiness to tell you thankyouverymuch for getting a song stuck in my head that I’ve been trying to forget for two months – which is when my son discovered the glory of James & the Giant Peach. lol
Happy birthday to your son though!!

What an adorable young man! I’ve lurked for a while, but today is my first post. Its a strange world, but I saw your play at the Pickleville Playhouse a few weeks ago and had no idea it was you, until I looked closer on this blog! It was strange since I had read you a bit and then saw you performing. My head was kind of spinning. Anyway, you always crack me up. Thanks for always being such an honest and great read.
