You were the first adult who asked a follow up question and actually waited for the answer. The interest was strange and you treated it as a subject worth knowing about, which nobody else did. Happy birthday to the uncle who paid attention. Thank you for taking it seriously back when it would have been far easier to smile and change the subject. It made an enormous difference to how I turned out, and I have never forgotten that you bothered.

Fold-open card, 5 x 7 in. Your message is written on the inside in real ink, and it arrives in its own stamped envelope.
