Very interesting, enlightening and heart warming dinner conversation tonight …
Thomas will own a restaurant when he grows up and will give me coupons so I can come eat there. He and Lillian will live next door to one another. He will build himself a 2 story house and will build Lillian a 10 story house (she wants a 100 story house but he told her he can’t do that). I can come visit them any time I want. I can’t wait to see how this story unfolds …..
