Ya think it's easy?

“I’d rather have an ankle monitor than an E-collar, that’s for sure!”

Five years ago yesterday, an office in San Bernardino was shot up by two Islamofascist terrorists.

Before Trump, those sorts of events were common, so they can seem to blend together. This one sticks out for me because a young friend of mine was born that day. It was she who made the awful news bearable – her reminding everyone who knows her that death might be news but it is life that matters.

And Elizabeth Grace Trbovich has been a birthday gift to me that way ever since, a steady reminder of what we are all doing this for.

This is me celebrating her birth the day after it happened – the day after the Massacre at San Berdoo:
