Happy Birthday Philippe

Today is my son Philippe's 35th birthday. I'm sorry I won't be in Colorado to celebrate with him and the rest of the family. I'll be thinking of him, though.

His first Christmas and birthday in Paris. Already interested in books.


Reading to Eric


Big brother


High school days


Graduation - Bachelor's degree


And now with his wife Rachel


Philippe and Rachel during a previous visit to Paris - before I moved here. They'll be coming again in May, 2011 !

I won't be partying today, but I will be counting my blessings which are captured in the photos above.

Love from Paris,
Elaine (Mom)
