Son

Surely, my son, you work to bless us

Off-the-cuff, like Dr. Watson, no ego, how so?

Needing no reason, you just enlighten.

Kim, back for a congratulatory comment for you on your TOY acrostic. For my sons and grandsons, I too enjoyed yesteryear's building bricks. I'll dig around and find some to introduce to my great grandson; his name is Mason.

Thank you, Kim. Guess I am partial, being he's MY son but he IS a treasure I've thanked God for these last 44 years.
