Today is a very blessed day. Today is my younger son Mark's birthday. He is truly a gift from God and has become everything I ever prayed for him to become and more. For validation of that statement, read the short eloquent post his wife, Lynn, wrote about him this morning at "My Charmed Life." [...]
