My godson came to visit and have supper a couple of days ago…

It was really cool to see him. He told me his parents, who had recently moved to a new house, want me to come and visit. I look forward to doing that, soon.

We had a very nice visit. He spoke of his partner, whom he visited in the UK last year, showed me photos of the trip. I had given him the number of my cousin who lives there who, with his wife, had come down and taken my godson and his friend to dinner. The pictures were great.

I’ve known this kid literally since the day he was born, and watched him grow up to be a fine young man.
Just as his parents were my friends even before he was born, now he also calls periodically to see how I’m doing.

He’s going to be 22 in Dec; he lives with two roommates and works part time while attending nursing school. We’re all incredibly proud of him.

When he got ready to return home, he hugged me and I asked him to please let me know he’d gotten home safely. I was a little embarrassed to ask, but he smiled kindly. "No problem. You know Mom always asks, too." So I packed up some leftovers for him and his roommates, and he was off.

Later, he called from home, and said his roommates were devouring the food. I heard him say, "You could at least thank my godmother for the food !" I heard a chorus of voices saying "Thank you, Godmother !" and chuckled. 😊

You seem to have had a great reunion. How is it his partner is in UK and he in US? That has to be so hard.
@samueltyler2 They began chatting online a couple of years ago and were Skyping until they got to meet.

He says his friend is a bit worried about coming here for a visit with Trump in power.
