Hemingway said it best, ―If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.‖ To put his quote to the test, Charm Patricia Johnson traveled to Paris, France and London, England in March of this year. The pictures included with this article show what a delightful time she had.

Imagine floating down the Miami harbor with K’Jon’s ―On the Ocean‖ wafting in the background transitioning into Boyz II Men’s ―A Song for Momma. That is how Charm Patricia spent her Mother’s Day. In Miami, Florida, where she visited her son, Terrence, for a week. He out did himself as he celebrated Mother’s Day with many activities and gifts, including an Island Queen Cruise. Terrence certainly proved that his mom, Charm Pat was ―the queen of his heart. Patricia had a wonderful time.
