How quick they grow up
My, how quick they grow up. One day a baby and the next, a young lass with a fondness for prancing and dancing and chattering away in pretty girl’s dresses. Yes, our one and only grandchild is on the verge of turning two.
Becoming a grandparent makes you feel old doesn’t it? Where I stand, I’m well and truly on the road to being really old. With the decades behind me tallying just over five, they’ll surely outweigh the ones that lay before me; that’s life.
But you have to admit, while grandchildren remind us of our own mortality, they bring out the youth in us and rekindle our knee high to a grasshopper memories. And wasn’t I perfect little Angel back then; not.

Boy, in those days the years took forever to go by, unlike today when everything flashes by so fast; if only we could slow things down.
Separated by time and distance we can’t see our granddaughter as much as we like but she can rest assured that we love her dearly.
Mind you, with holidays just around the corner, paying a flying visit to see the apple of our eye will do everyone good, especially Ma and Pa and you know who.

What a beautiful picture, such a lovely smile. You can't be old, you're the same age I am. :)
Hope everything else is going well with you and yours. I'll eventually get some more posts up on my blog. I had to mow yesterday for only the second time this summer, that lawn has actually gone green!
Hi Moonshadow. Emmi is the most beautiful child in the world. Am I biased in anyway? No, not me.
Everything here is just dandy especially with hols just around the corner.
So I'm not old? Wish you'd tell my mirror that! Keep on top of that lawn, as mine is out of control.
Take Care,
Peter
Hi Peter :D!
Emmi is gorgeous! Time flew so fast, 2 years old already? I'm getting old *nodding*...
This is the second time, today, I read a post on time:

It is not a coincidence for sure!
Anyway, I wish all the love and happiness to Emmi and your family :D!
Cheers
Hi Max. Emmi is the best looking grandchild in the world, without a doubt. Top shelf, as they say.
I paid a short visit to the link in question. Couldn't quite work out what was wrong with him but I hope he gets better after his operation.
And how are you going? hanging in there? Wishing you all my best. Have a great weekend and party hard!
Take Care,
Peter
Peter,
"Emmi is the best looking grandchild in the world, without a doubt. Top shelf, as they say."
Ah you grandparents...you always say the same :D! My parents say the same about their grandchildren....*nodding*.
Nevertheless, Emmi is utterly gorgeous; beware when she becomes a missy ;)!
"Couldn't quite work out what was wrong with him but I hope he gets better after his operation."
I am going to be honest: I didn't ask. But I wished him all the best.
"And how are you going? hanging in there? Wishing you all my best. (...) party hard!"
Moi? I am excellent, thank you for asking :D. Thank you, mate!! LOL don't I always? ;)
And how're you (besides drooling over your cute grand-child)?
Have a great week!
Hey Peter they do sure grow fast, and Emmi is more beautiful every time I see her on your blog. BTW she looks so much like you. Thanks for sharing your precious grand girl with us. Anna :) PS you are not that old, lol.
Hi Anna. Sorry for the later reply. Having more than one computer going down in flames hasn't helped. More of pictures of Emmi are coming soon.
Take Care,
Peter
