A Gift From My Youngest Son A few days ago, I heard the doorbell and by the time I got there, the Amazon delivery truck was going out the driveway. I opened the door and saw a parcel just waiting to be picked up. What a lovely surprise was there waiting for me! My son sent me the new book written by James Comey "A Higher Loyalty". I only read a few pages so far as I wasn't feeling the best the last few days but hoping that tonight I will be able to read a lot. I wasn't expecting this gift at all, but I am certainly happy about it.
A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership: James Comey: 9781250192455: Books - Amazon.ca

From what I have heard in the news about Comey and from his interviews, he should of changed the book's title, lol. Anyway, it is always nice to receive a gift especially from family! Enjoy
