I went to the airport today to drop off my teenage son... just as I have done so often... He is growing up so fast, I had to smile as he blushed when I hugged and kissed him and said.. "I LOVE YOU MY BOY"
.. I don't care, he can puke for all I care..ha!.. it's the price he has to pay for having an old Italian dad..

He gathered up his luggage and hurried down the long concourse.. and before he was completely gone from sight, he stopped and turned, and a weak smile came across that beautiful face. He waved once more and his mouth whispered "I LOVE YOU DAD"..and I thought I saw a tear in his eye. I can't be sure, because my eyes were tearing....

It is only for a weekend, but.. for just an instance ....  Dear God bring him home safely...

carlo,

very sweet, I am sure you son will be fine, and one day he will be the same with his son.

These are the good things of life, loving our children and cherishing the time we have with them...

Indeed, we never know what can happen. So important to tell our loved ones how we feel, and often! And to cherish each day.

Thanks Carlo. Freepers are the best!
