MY BIG DATE!

It has been a LONG time since any young and good-looking young man has asked me out for a date, but that all changed recently. I had a phone call a couple of weeks ago from my young friend, Wesley's Dad-David. It seems Wesley wanted us to go for a ride to look at Christmas lights. I was very flattered by the invitation and attention. Wesley also said, "Tell Mr. Bobby he can go too."

So tonight we had our date and just for fun we invited Wesley's good friend, Mr. James to go along with us. We went for Mexican food first (it is Sunday night) with Wesley's family and then we were off for our holiday tour.

Here is Wesley-all smiles as usual.

Wesley and His Sweet Mom, Rachel & Mr. Bobby


After our ride and back home, one final picture of our group.

Wesley has a very sweet spirit and never meets a stranger, although I occasionally see a little shy streak. Every time we saw another beautiful house, Wesley would exclaim, "HOOLLLYY COW!" We heard this phrase about 200 times during the evening-we were all cracking up.
What you see is what you get with Wesley and he does not mince words. A couple of his gems during the evening included telling me (we were in the back seat together) that he really loved Mr. Bobby and Mr. James. He also asked Bobby and James if they trusted him, because he trusted them. Oh, he also told Bobby to slow down and be careful a few times and warned him that a policeman could be ahead. It was quite the evening and Wesley exclaimed Mr. James had made him laugh so hard that his stomach hurt. I don't think I have had a better date in a long long time.
We ended the evening with a future promise of a baseball game outing, a fishing trip, and a tour of Mr. James'es Alligator Farm. We all love Wesley and are blessed to be called among his scores of friends.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, WESLEY !!
