Rod Visits Mom

Now hear this...now hear this....Rod visited his Mother without me. (Okay, this is not really newsworthy. This is not the first time he has visited her alone. Though he is quite capable, it is just easier to find talk-worthy subjects by bouncing ideas off of each other. Remember Madeline can't always initiate nor carry conversations but she sure will join in on an engaging and interesting one.)

It was wonderful to hear that Madeline recognized him and announced that "my son showed up to visit me." Now, whether or not she recognized him as the youngest son...well, we don't know but they had a lively and upbeat conversation.
