I forgot to mention that when I opened An Open Heart, a photo fell out. It was a picture of two large, middle-aged men. One is grinning mischievously at the camera while touching the other man's belly. The standing man is barely smiling, more out of being the butt of a joke than fun. The back of the picture reads, "Uncle Ritchie giving birth." I thought it was an odd picture, not one you would expect to see in this kind of book. I also thought how silly it was to leave a picture in a book...
Today, I picked up Living Buddha, Living Christ which came in at the library. I flipped through it, and found another picture. I thought that people ought to be more careful when they return their borrowed books. When I turned the photo over, I was shocked to see it was a picture of my son! I laughed at myself for leaving a photo in a library book. And surprised that it was still there after all of these months.
