Yes, I never realized how Italian he looked until this pic. He looks more Italian than his dad! Actually, my bday was on the 8th but he wasn't able to come home until last Monday. That week went so fast!

He gave me the book The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury as one of my gifts. It's so funny how in sync we are. I had emailed him a couple of weeks ago "Guess what I'm having for lunch? A warm chicken sandwich w/sliced tomatoes and hot chocolate. Remember?" and he wrote back "Of course I remember. The Illustrated Man." He had already ordered the book for me for my birthday unbeknownst to me.
