A fun visit and a birthday wish

We had a lot of fun with my Mom and Aunt Rose. Just as with previous visitors, we played a lot and got to see more of London. Mom and Rose are what baseball players call 'gamers'. They rose to every occasion, were up for anything (even when it was nothing), and always had a laugh and a smile. Here are some pictures from our time with them.

At the ambassador's residence they got in line with the kids and had their faces painted.
Here we are at Covent Garden, listening to some classical musicians and having a cappuccino.

It's a blessing to be able to sit with your mom and have a pint...and to thoroughly enjoy every minute of it. Here's to you, Mom. Happy Birthday and Happy Mothers Day. I love you.
