Yesterday was Drew and my "golden" birthday. He is exactly half my age. So hard to believe. Frances and Alex went to Springfield with him and they hung out at the mall and there is also a Toys r Us and Kmart really close and about once a week they go into Springfield with Drew and spend the day there while he is at work. Whenever he is in town he tries to meet them at the mall to have lunch together because his place of business is right across the street from the mall but he has been working in Branson every day for a couple of weeks now. I baked him a cake. We were going to put candles on it but he said that since candles come in a box of 24 and when you need more than one box, then you are too old for candles. Drew has started back at college, the same one as Clay and so there are constant talks between Drew and Clay for hours about so many things. Recently Clay has been working on "tasks" concerning "Global Warming" and "creation vs evolution." The guys go on and on for so long that Frances and I finally wander off into one of our rooms to get a change from them and their discussions. I love it, I love seeing father and son back together and respecting each other again and enjoying their time together. Right now they are putting together plans for a big car port. The front porch will be put off so that the cars and our truck will be out of the icy weather. Well here are some pictures of "Drew Past" enjoy.
The Christmas that Clay was in the Persian Gulf for a year, so "mommy santa" had to come visit on Christmas Eve.
San Antonio
Virginia and Kentucky
The last Christmas that Drew wasn't a daddy.
Drew's most recent picture and the one that I love. We are so proud of the young man that he has become. He is such a good, decent and giving man.
