Summary: <p>For the last thirty-one years, until last year, January 6 had been tied for the very best day in our family’s calendar. Thirty-one years ago our son Sam was born on January 6. In addition, the birthday of our beloved colleague Joan Mael is also January 6. For years, before the pandemic, our colleagues would take Joan out to Legal’s for lunch. At home and at work, I just loved January 6.</p> <p>And then came <em>last </em>January 6, and the day obviously became a whole lot more complicated.</p>
