I recently found this Michael Arandas blog. Its a snippet from his mothers old blog:

Tomorrow is my oldest child’s 21st birthday. Amazing. He’s a film student at Brooks Institute in Ventura and I visited him on the set of a film he was shooting last week. He’s the director. It was very impressive. It totally looked like a Hollywood production: sets, actors in costume, crew members with walkie talkies, lights, camera, mic boom, sound engineers, monitors, cables running everywhere. In the midst of it all, in charge, is my son. I’m very proud of him. I can easily envision him making a living in the film business. What makes me proudest, though, is that he’s a nice, decent human being and he still calls his mother for advice.

she died of cancer a couple years back.

This made me cry today, but Im still glad I read it.
