"Ratification is the affirmance by a person of a prior act which when performed did not bind him, but
which was professedly done on his account, whereby the act is given effect as if originally authorized by
him." Disney Enters., Inc. v. Espirit Fin., Inc., 981 S.W.2d 25, 31 (Tex. App.- San Antonio 1998, pet.
