His mamma- my niece - died a year ago in July.
He will be coming to live with us next week. Most likely for the foreseeable future.

He's not quite 3 yo.

he'll be my present for my 53rd b-day 🙂

I'd say that both of you will become winners in that arrangement.

:good:

Congrats you old geezer. You get a "son" to do all those fun things with.

Not sure why exactly but for some reason after seeing that photo I am reminded of the television advertisement from nearly 40 years ago that had the phrase, "Let Mikey try it."

I see a potential future surveyor!

I see a lifelong buddy and a constant joy.
Under the circumstances, he is one fortunate little boy to have you as a father figure and mentor.

I wish both of you the best. Teach him well! 😀

What an awesome opportunity. Enjoy the Blessing!

P.S. you got him at the perfect age. Just out of diapers and full of intrigue. You can shape his young mind and make him a great man!

I'm proud to know you, sort of, you old File. (Sort of know you, not sort of proud. I'm very proud.)
I'm overjoyed for Troy. That little boy is truly blessed and you are too.

Don
