Ohhh, I really like this!
What a lovely composition and how touching to see.
What a beautiful lady! How touching to see her with your son.
It would be a wonderful comparison to have one of her and him now some years later!
Lovely memory - were they watching something floating by in a stream?
Judy, I had the same thought about a comparison today.
There is this, a few years later, with our second son, Mike.

She is lovely! So are the boys!
QuoteShe is lovely!
Indeed. Every day, I marvel that she'd pick me.
I first saw her my first day of college, in my first class. And when she spoke, it was like angels singing. She never noticed me, but her dorm was on the way to my fraternity, so I'd follow her back each day, afraid to speak to her, thinking I'd do it wrong, and ruin everything. Finally, I got up the nerve to talk to her.
I can only thank God for making her, and for letting me share her life.
Your story had me in tears as I read it to Kassie. So touching. You did well BUT So did she.
NOW can we see an update of your lovely wife and those strapping son's of yours?
Sean three years ago.

Note the nose. All our males have it. Don't have a good one of Mike. I'll see if I can find one.
Great to see these! Lovely to meet the family!
About four years ago. Mrs. Barbarian finally hung up the boots, but this game, she got a goal. That's my daughter, Ginger with her.

This week, we were in Shreveport, and went back to that spot where Mrs. Barbarian sat with Sean. Meagan is sitting on the same wall.
You have beautiful ladies in your life. This is a beautiful picture.
