A Mom Day

After more than a year, we are going to see our son today! It sounds so silly but I just want to hold him, smell him and look into his eyes. Guess that makes me a mom! Michael had a fantastic conversation with him on Friday when he expressed how happy he was on this tour, with this group and their management team. They have been playing venues of 3000-5000 people but beginning in January, they move into arenas. Yes, they have outgrown the clubs with this current album's success. This is right up William's alley. There is where he feels at home. We also learned that he has a contract with them through September of 2018.

I made a pan of baklava for him and his crew. After I messaged that fact to him yesterday, we arranged a meeting before the concert tonight. We are going to meet after the sound check and he will maybe have time for a cup of coffee or a quick dinner. We will see. We are expecting nothing but a brief visit as we always remember that he is working.

He also mentioned to Michael that he is totally on for our Christmas getaway to Palm Springs. I think it will be the downtime he will need.

It is hot today and we expect hundreds of tourists to flock to the coast. That is fine except we need to get over the pass about the same time that they will all be going home. So, we are planning to leave the coast mid-afternoon and get over the bridge to the East Bay then just hang out until we see our son. Better to be there than to sit in endless traffic.

It is an unusual Sunday for us and a great day for this mom.
