To Our Children's Children's Children - The Moody Blues

In the eyes of the child

you must come out and see.

That your world's spinning 'round

and through life you will be.

A small part of a hope of a love that exists

In the eyes of a child you will see

For most of the past couple of days I have been in Kingston on Thames visiting 2 very special girls and 3 equally important little boys. What has become usual is that

ALEXANDER and FREDERICK
scamper into my car before I even have time to get out of it!

During this first brief visit they managed function every control,
empty the screen washer bottle, bring up the battery warning light
and loose half of the parking money down the back of the seats.
Compared, I was such an angelic child??????
However, the Main Thrust of this visit was to meet a little girl named

ELIZABETH LOUISE
and they don't come much smaller!

Checking out all the digits there were all there and in the right place
and immediately I could see she was almost as beautiful as her Grandpa Bagsy.

BENJAMIN, Fred and Alex joined in to introduce me to
my first, and what should be, the only Granddaughter who
just simply 'knocked my socks off' and yes there was a blub!

BONDING

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
BEHOLD!

Benny, the youngest boy, was 2 years old yesterday so that was a
lucky escape, but there were presents including this
Play House.
They wanted me to join them inside but while I felt I could get in
there may well have been a big problem waiting to develop?

Meanwhile, Mummy Lisa was taking a break but not for long

as these boys seemingly never stop reading, writing, singing,
jigsawing as can be seen.

Alex has a novel way of helping his brothers,

but approaching dinnertime things have to be stowed away.
As ever my hat seems to gain popularity and after each of them

trying it on

there followed a game of throwing it onto the Play House roof

followed by Grandpa having to hide it.
Benny was looking a little bewildered at all the activity.

Now it may be noticed that I am looking even more pleased with
myself in this shot, as well I should.

I had just successfully completed bathing, drying, powdering and
dressing Elizabeth having not forgotten any of the skills needed to
bring up 2 girls of ones own.
