Beautiful photos Ruth! I am reminded that our children are of similar ages with my youngest son, Joel, turning thirty on 12 August 🙂
Happy 30th to Joel, too. Have you any clue where the time flew?
Thanks Lorraine.
Hi Ruth, yes I admit to still referring to my lads as my “children”. I guess I will always see them that way 🙂
