Sentimental Sunday ~ Birthday Boy

My first grandchild was born on this day a decade or so ago. I remember driving fast across hundreds of miles to be with my firstborn child and her firstborn child for this momentous event. This young man now stands eye to eye with me. He's beyond handsome with an incredible personality and a very dry sense of humor ~ my favorite kind. Happy Birthday baby!
