I look in the mirror and see a younger me. The me I feel inside. That's why I always ask my daughters "Who is the old woman?" when they post photos of us together. You gotta laugh, that's true Niall.

So true, age is just a number. I believe it is not the years in your life that count, it's the life you put in your years. Great job Niall. God Bless and a 7 from me. JB
