A Day With My Son!

Today, I spent a wonderful day with my son Ryan. He treated us to a Bellagio's Garlic Chicken Pizza & an afternoon of refreshing intellectual conversation. I always find his visits invigorating & he leaves me learning something I hadn't known before.

Tonight I'll say a special prayer, thanking God for giving me such a wonderful man!

All for now!......Mark
