September 26 is Austin's birthday.
27 years ago I was blessed with a 8 lb.14 oz. beautiful, perfect baby boy.
On his birthday, I drove to Long Beach Island, NJ and left Austin a birthday card on the rocky beach. I didn't stay long, it was windy and cold and as desolate as I felt.
Along the sand dunes, on the fence, there were balloons attached.... As if a party was waiting for Austin on this isolated beach.
Austin's birthday present is ten trees planted in Gallantin National Forest, near Yellowstone National Park.
Happy Birthday, Austin. I love you.
