How about this one, “He’s the PERFECT one for me!” (then lucky you!) This pic was taken …
We are on vacation in Southern California this week with a few of our kids and grandbabies. It’s a trip we’ve been so looking forward to since we booked it months ago, and so far we are having a great time! But knowing that our experience is going to be 50% good and 50% bad, …
