Recently we celebrated Liam’s 1st birthday party, pictured with me directly above. Alice was also a happy girl on the day as you cans see from her photo.
Let’s hope their generation enjoys a more peaceful world, which prompted me to compose a short poem.
Peace
Torments of our violent earth
Cries for freedom let peace re- birth
Peaceful form, oh pure delight
To banish violence from all sight
Form of peace itself to know
Form of peace, desires to show
Form of peace, peaceful review
May new life a peace renew
Spirit of peace call forth surrender
To the light filled, peace agenda
Form of peace, peaceful review
May new life a peace renew

What a loving grandpa and lovely little ones. Yes, a more peaceful world for them.
Lovely poem and finally someone else taking the picture.
You all look so happy.
lindsay, what a beautiful picture that first one; proud granddaddy and adoring little liam looking at him.. how cute!
The other little girl (sorry, can't remember her name, mine is wailing right now trying to get out of bed..ehem) is pretty adorable too..I cannot imagine it right now but I expect to be an adoring little granny someday! Lol
ok..so much for reading this poem, I need to put the kabash on that fake wailing..see what extra perks you have as a grand dad???

As for the next generation: I am so confident that they will do just fine. They will do great!

Hi laura,Nerdene & Val & Fares
Peace for them and hopefully a rosier world.
Fares –I do hope and pray Syria is nor targeted or drawn into any conflict for its dear citizens and families.
Hi, Lindsay, glad to see you on "my boring little blog" hah.
I just heard the stupidest joke on the Red Green Show. "What do you use your ears for?" Answer: "Seeing." "My glasses sit on them." Groan...
Josie
Wonderful pictures, Lindsay. That's a big, happy smile you're wearing, and I can't blame you. Beautiful kids!
absolutely beautiful children, how lucky you are - the hold of a baby is food for the soul.
Lets hope the prayer in your lovely poem does not go unanswered, thank you
