My grandson Thomas saving the galaxy, tickling the paws of a giant bear, and being buried up to his head at the beach by his daddy, plus a sculpture that we found at a Tyrolean restaurant we enjoy that to me does a good job portraying the joys of childhood. A bonus is we got to drive through a forest of giant redwoods to go from the beach to the restaurant perhaps twenty minutes away. It was a delightful day.
With Love,
Russ

What a joyful face!
Thank you for your comment, Colleen. Thomas is a joyful child who fills the hearts of those around him with joy. I’m blessed, proud, and grateful to be his “Papa.”

Ah yes, life is good. Enjoy those grandkids. They grow up so fast!
That’s exactly what we plan to keep doing, Jan. I appreciate your wise advice.

It looks great, you probably had the same fun or even more than Thomas! 🙂
We have great times together. I have the most fun when I’m being a kid with my grandchildren, or enjoying My Beloved doing the same with them.
Russ.
Totally understandable, and the best bit of having grandchildren!
Grandchildren are a blessing are they not
Thy are indeed. I count them among my greatest blessings!
