The new guy in my life chases me around while we laugh and play in the local park. He's the best man I could've ever found. He gets me drunk without popping a cork. We share bubbles; not the champagne kind. The kind we blow way up into the blue sky and when they go 'pop' we don't even mind for it's such fun to watch them flying so high. Looking at life through the eyes of this child gives me a feeling that's quite hard to explain. He brings out such an urge in me to run wild, the riotous kind that makes me happily insane. My grandson is a free spirit with angelic eyes and a vocabulary that amazes me each day. This child will grow into some woman's prize, but his Nana wishes at the age of two he'd stay.

We have five now, the latest were identical twin boys. Do we ever know this feeling. A wonderful reminder of what really is important. Thank you Lin. Well done...

Look up top, next to my picture. There you'll see an envelope with what appears to be a mug of soup. Click on that and you can send soup mail

5! How grand to have so many little sweet ones. Brennan is my first (and only) so far. That really is him chasing the bubbles. Eve saw my photo and suggested I write about him. Thanks for liking this one, Charlie.
