Day 34: Hang in There

For Damen. 

Timothy Ambrose Wallace only wants to fly. It is spring and school is about to let out for summer recess. He sits next to the window in his first grade classroom where he can drift into the sky and daydream about the grand adventures that are on their way. Uncle Tim and his father have agreed to bring him along for his first real trip, now that he’s finally large enough to assist with the rigging. They’ll be gone for a month. They leave in ten days.

Day 14: Timothy Ambrose Wallace

Timothy is the fourth-oldest of the Wallace kindle (kindle being the term for a litter of kittens: kindle of kittens. A very nifty collective noun that is so much more than an electronic reader. Work it into one of your conversations today.).  While he’s not the oldest, he is the biggest handful. He is named in honor of Theophilus Ignatius Mulligatawny (Tim for short), who is also a fourth-born son, and a handful in his own right. Little Tim thinks the world of his uncle Theophilus and has been known to stow away on just the sorts of airships he will one day captain himself.
