This park is in an older neighborhood. It's one of my favorites, where houses are painted in mint green,
squirrels scatter about, and birds come right up to you.
On the way home, a song came on the radio, Red Red Wine by Bob Marley. We listened to it, and I thought of my son, who is my best friend. He's the coolest young man I know, and he's always there with a smile, giving me a laugh or two, and bringing me peace every day.

My dear Sheri, what a precious relationship you have with your son. You inspire me, my friend, because I have a son {who is still quite young}. Thank you for blessing my life.
Love and hugs to you!
Oh please forgive me, for some reason I thought you only had daughters. What a special occasion to meet and eat every week.
such a lovely tradition you have there ;) .. it was perfect weather for park walk!
Have a lovely day!

Sheri,
You and I have both have one son and then you have two daughters and I have three. We are blessed with loving and strong relationships with all of them, aren't we? I am thankful you had this opportunity to spend such a lovely evening with him. This past weekend I was able to spend some extra time with my son too and it meant the world to me.
Have a beautiful day, Sheri,
Love,
Jemma

Your you&me Life.

Sheri ... that's just a lovely post. Special times with your son and that park looks a beautiful place to walk.
Take Care and ...
All the best Jan
This struck such a chord with me because as much as I love having the whole family together, I also adore time alone with each of them. Your park setting, and the menu, sounds better to me than the fanciest restaurant, and there was privacy for heart to heart talk and a way to walk off a few calories.
We have the one daughter and 3 sons. One son's birthday is this week and I won't get to see him on it. He will be having a wonderful time with his own dear little family and many friends, and I'll spend my day remembering his birth, his toddler cuteness, and the dear man he became--and missing him so much. Come fall, we'll get to go visit and I'm counting the days.
Your weekly meal with your son is such a gift, but then I know you know that.

How sweet, Sheri! I love how you stay connected each week with your son. I'm sure he appreciates it, too. Your best friend, huh? Must be some amazing guy! Have a blessed rest of the week, dear lady!
What a great spot to have dinner with your son :o) I'm glad you take time to catch up with your son every week....so special!!!!

You obviously did a marvelous job of bringing him up. To have him turn out to be such a fine young man.

What a wonderful way to spend time with your son, Sheri! I have two and it is so hard to find that 'one on one' time with them now that they are married and starting families. I know that you treasure these moments - your son sounds like a very thoughtful young man! Of course he is - he was raised by you!!! Hugs xo Karen
How lovely to meet your son regularly for lunch and the picnic lunch sounds perfect.
Sheri, You and your son sound as close as my daughter and her grown son. That is a special bond...never to be broken. I love the park you walked in today. Blessings to you dear. Love, Susie
Oh Sheri, your son sounds wonderful and I can tell you have a close bond. MY son (only child)and I are extremely close, He lives up in Los Gatos and of course I am in So CA. I always know when he is on the phone.
I wish I could have lunch or dinner with my son once a week.
But, he sent me a ticket to go up to his house for my Birthday. I will arrive on the 24th and come home on the 28th. Will also get to see my little Kelly.
Have a wonderful week and I so enjoyed the beautiful park you took us to,
Hugs

Good morning dear one.
I had internet problems early this morning, but I'm glad to be back on-line to see your post.
In this day of troubles, when we can find trust in those we love, that is the greatest comfort. Your son must be an exceptional young man, meeting his mother regularly. What a dream....
I'm glad to hear that you and your son are so close. :-) Pretty park, too.
Aww, what a lovely post! You're son is blessed to have you as his mum.
What a precious time together. I don't like that my oldest son is so far away. I miss him.
hi dear,
the park looks beautiful. its nice to have some quality time with your loved ones..
Have a lovely week
Stay in touch
xoxo
So sweet my dear. As you know, I am a mom of boys. Two boys xx oo! We have a special friendship as well. I do pray for it to stay life long.
I love that you do this weekly with your son.

Lovely post. How sweet of meeting up with you son on a weekly basis. Thanks for your sweet comment and I am following you back!
I'm not surprised you raised such a caring son. How nice that you have a loving ritual...a time for just the two of you. I'm sure you both treasure it, as you should.
