Yes, there were tears when I read the "65"! What a sweetie. I logged in just to see your exciting new project--and it was me. You're amazing; positively insightful. I wish I had your way with words and how you sum up the important things in life. Love always. Thanks for the many treasured moments you've given me. Life is never dull when you are nearby!
