    Happy Birthday to Wesley. Always loved that little twinkle in his eye. Congrats to you for graduating 3 fine young men – job well done.

      Awe, thank you Trish. 3 down – 3 to go. But you’ll always be ahead of me. 🙂

      And yes, Wesley still has that twinkle.

    Happy Birthday, Wesley! The first time I met him at camp he made a very good impression with his friendliness and how respectful he was. You have raised a fine young man, Elisabeth!

      Ahhh! I do not know what is going on with our computer…I had to wish Wesley a happy birthday three times before it would actually post and now I do not see your response with Wesley’s sincere, deep desire to learn what my impression was of him upon our second meeting. You may inform him that our second meeting only confirmed my first impression. I understand that we are to meet for the THIRD time, shortly. I will be scrutinizing his every action to make certain that I was not mistaken, but I have great faith in him and am certain that he will behave himself in such a manner that I will be forced to recognize his greatness of character!

I love hearing from you! Thank you for taking the time to comment.
