Today is my son Philippe's 36th birthday. I'm sorry I won't be in Portland to celebrate with him and Rachel, but we'll be thinking of him and sending love.
Last year I featured some photos of him as a youngster.
Here's a more recent photo of Philippe:

Philippe and Rachel have a special connection with Paris - this is where they became engaged in 2007. Philippe and Rachel came back to Paris in May, 2011 and they returned to the site of his proposal - the Pont des Arts - to seal their love by attaching a padlock to the railing and throwing the key into the river below.





Patrice and I went back to the Pont des Arts last week to look for their padlock.

The bridge continues to attract lovers and padlocks.

Lovely pics.
ReplyDeleteParis is also special for me. I met my husband here on our first date and later I got my first ring from him. It wasnt an engagement ring though, just a gift.
