Hope this does not bore you, but I had to deal this wonderful news with you. Yesterday morning I became a "Pop" with a wonderful grand daugter born to my eldest son. ;D ;D  Her name is Belle Fleur (Beautiful flower in French) and isn't she a beautiful little flower. Going down to Dunedin tonight to look and see her, but don't think I'll do it on the scoot as it's not to tropical here, had a -3C/27F this morning. Apparently (I'm new to this game) there is a good and a bad grandfather in every childs experience, well I'm going to be the bad grandfather - I'll spoil them rotten!!  |

What a beautifu baby!!!! Congrats KiWi. I have 12 grand childeren and 11 great grand
children, if memory serves me correctly. My brood is scattered like the flowers in the wind
so we do not get to see each other a lot. I envy you. Spoil her rotten and enjoy the moment.
You deserve it.

Well well, just back after doing the grandfather thing, holding the baby and lots of photos.
No scooting today as we're under a 2-3inch blanket of snow, SUV weather at the moment.
Now I'm a granddad I'm allowed:
1.) to forget
2.) go grey
3.) dottery on my feet (even tho it's just clumsyness as I'm not 50 yet)
4.) and the list goes on and on...
5.) did I mention ....to forget
6.) go grey
7)......
hmmm....forgot where is that "Post Reply" button...can't see.. where's my glasses...can't find them anywhere, Oh they are on my nose...found that button

Yeah, KiWi, all that you described is what you can expect to be seen as now that you have
that beautiful grandchild. I just got word yesterday that my 12th great grand child was born Friday. 50? My youngest son is 50 this year. You are just a kid!!! I am 75, white haired, a little
shaky on my feet at times and I forget what else goes with being that age. 8^) You are a most fortunate man----spoil that grandchild rotten! (snow in July?? Wow, could use a bit of
that weather here in the states right now!)
