~Meet My Son, Mark!~:-)

Meet my son Mark... My boy arrived last night about
9:30 from the UK.. :-) I knew he was coming for
a week, but I wasn't taking any chances so I
wasn't saying anything till he was actually here,
which you see he is.. :-) Was a long trip.. a 9 hour
plane ride, a 3 half hour bus ride and a 1 hour
ride with Donnie... He picked Mark up at the
Coach USA terminal in Mishawaka... which is
is really just a little burb between Elkhart and
South Bend.

I havent seen my son for over 38 years. It was time.
To really see my boy and be able to actually touch him
for the first time since he was 4 years old I cannot
even truthfully describe how I felt, it was such a great
feeling.. We sat and talked till past 2 am, till we were
both just exhausted, and would you believe Mark woke
up BEFORE me and had coffee :-) I think Dutch woke
him up before he did me.. :-)

Mark brought lots of photos that sure brought back
memories that I had not thought of for years.. To see
my ex and his parents, which I had no pictures of them
at all.. Was nice to remember those times. Their dad
and I DID have some good times together and those
are what I prefer to remember about the past.. Mark
and I talked and still have lots more to talk about.. He
has questions and so do I and its a lot easier to give
an answer in person than thru messenger or typing..
Up close and personal is far better..

The duration of Marks visit is open for discussion,
he knows he is welcome to stay as long as he likes. Hes
checked out the neighborhood just what he can see
from here and I guess where he lives it was a bit
crowded no nice big yards like what is here.. He says
Tyler would have such a great time playing with all
the neighborhood kids plus so much room to play ...
Hes talked to Tyler on line and hes ready to come
over here too :-) I sure would like that as well...

I don't need to tell you that this is a short post
today as it is a very special day for me... Tomorrow
we are going to watch the bike parade... and other
than that.. we is just gonna sit and talk and get to
know each other again.. :-) Needless to say this
GORGEOUS WEEBLE is VERY happy, only ONE
way it could get better is if my other son were
here as well.. Hopefully that will come about too...

So... POST time.. and my "I shall return!"
Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? Luv ya and Thanks!


Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,
I'm honored to call you Friend.
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again ....

    Hello all,
    Raife it will take a long time to acclimatize. Virgin airline wasn't all that good the food was not good at all. Stop over in Chicago saw an Auntie Annies Pretzel shop......but had to run for the bus....I was on a mission.
    There does seem to be some type of resemblance yes.
    Momar,
    Eastenders Like Coronation Street is a reserved taste. Just before the important football matches thats when I saw it.
    Thank God that hummer showed up I think they enjoy messing with Butterfly I did giggle alot. Needs a holster for her camera.
    Thank You all for the kind words.
