                                I turned 41 today. Sitting here with just Francis and the kids at a little pizza parlor in the city, I rub most of the salt off a French fry and hand it to Terri to chew on. It wasn't exactly healthy but hey, it was a birthday party after all!

                               Francis' hand is holding mine beside the once-hot pan in the middle of our table and I find myself looking up into his blue eyes. There's a secret smile on his lips and I already know what it means, so I give one myself before turning my attention back to the pan and grabbing another slice.
