On Behalf Of Richard

Honestly, a confession is wanting here. In all fairness to Richard, I was a bit of a ring leader as a kid; NO, scratch that! I was... well, I was bossy. Downright. Arrogant even, because I always just knew I had things right. And it took me a lot of years and a lot of foolishness to learn otherwise.
Richard was a quiet, sweet child. I............ couldn't have been. So, he is entitled to a large measure of vindication from responsibility for these antics.
It wasn't until a few years ago that I reflected on the term "little pill", but my time has come to offer sincerest apologies because in spite of being little, I'm sure there were times when I had to have been hard to take.
