My Clone

My son Scottie and me Are like two peas in a pod The word “clone” surely comes to mind His humour is the same His carefree look at life matches mine There is no mistaking Scottie boy is my son He's also inherited my creative genes Following in his Daddy's footsteps A techie version of his old man Did I mention I'm proud of my Scottie Does a bear poop in the woods Of course I'm proud as a peacock I love this boy! He's now in his fifties and a VP But pretty damn impressive I'd say He will always be my boy!

Jack glad to know you have a son you love and are proud of. I am sure he is a reflection of his dad.

I'd like to think so but he's taken his career farther than his dad ever did!!!

Yes, he will, Jack. Your pride comes through in glowing colors. It's always good to be proud of your son. I know I am.

No... his forte takes him in another very lucrative direction! Guess he inherited some of his daddy's drive and exploration! Proud... guess you can tell! :) Nice hearing from you my fellow Canuck!!!
