I feel terrible. In talking with Bou the other day, she told me it was Bones', her youngest son, birthday today. Today he is 6 years old.
I will never forget the first night I met Bou and the boys. They had come to Orlando to go to Sea World and invited me to accompany them to dinner.
I met them at their hotel. The smile started as they entered the lobby of the hotel. What a precious sight.
All three of the boys were delightful - each with his own charm, his own sweet character. But Bones? Oh, what a charmer that one is.
We had a wonderful dinner than the boys went swimming and Bou and I sat by the pool having the first of many wonderful conversations.
As the evening drew to a close, and I walked them back to their elevator - I feel a tug on the hem of my shirt. I look down and there are a pair of the clearest, most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, looking up at me with the softest glow. Miss Tammi? Will I see you again?
To say I melted is not even close. My heart swelled, and I have to admit - I fell in love.
Like I said - a charmer. Pure and simple.
Happy Birthday Bones. 6 Years Old. WoW.
and yeah baby - you'll see me again! And this time I get a hug!!!!

I just keep thinking, if he is a handful now, what is he going to be like at 16?
Thank you for the post for him. He had a great birthday. Chicken Pot Pie and Chocolate Cake!
