At times, I felt certain I'd hit a home run. Today, I know I was born on third base. With one-fourth of the twenty-first century in today's review mirror, the headwinds many American families face jeopardize dreams like the ones our family had. I was given a launching pad, not the best in the world, but the best my folks could fashion. That, like many gifts, grew into more gifts - education, my own families, friends beyond measure, and jobs far from Sycamore Street. It also grew into divorce, deaths, and depression.
