On reflection of a few of the recent threads about the past year, and the ensuing one I had pause to think about some of my priorities in life.

Frankly I don't know what I'd do if anything happened to him. He is the closest thing I have to my own child.
Cute, huh? Little Liam is currently dubbed "mini-me"
