Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2007. We took Mattie to Key West with Peter's parents for spring break. At one of the sites we went to visit there was this wonderful dinosaur model made out of found pieces of materials (for example the head of the dinosaur was made out of a boat motor). What I love about this photo was that Mattie was doing his interpretation of a dinosaur!

However, our drive home was deeply disturbing to me. As we were driving there was a car in front of us on the highway. As this car was driving under an overpass, I noticed something falling from the overpass/bridge. What was it? Well someone on the bridge was targeting cars and was throwing glass bottles onto the traffic on the highway. Well a glass bottle hit the car in front of us and glass went everywhere. The windshield of the car in front of us was shattered and it is lucky that the driver did not lose control of his car. Literally we were minutes away from have gotten hit ourselves. This whole scenario made me very depressed because I can't understand what joy someone would get out of hurting another person. This was premeditated and with purpose to cause damage. To me this is a sign of profound sickness and unfortunately I am seeing more and more of this rampant disregard for life all around me.
