L.’s Birthday

Only a few days back he asked me (with a straight face), “did you know that Bergman actually filmed *all the seals,* but, sadly, messed up and left us only with the Seventh?” and when I huffed and puffed with the usual “stop it!” he nodded and said that it’s true?
Every day with him is a mixture of a circus, an academic debate, a chapter from domestic chronicles out of a fairy tale and a tour around the loveliest places: he has the most comforting and tender demeanour among all the humans of the Earth. He is also the smartest man: the power of his intellect never ceases to amaze me and always makes me proud to be part of his life.
He’s a prominent scientist, but also a goofball, the kindest Grandpa and the best Larry in the world.
Happy Birthday, darling.
