My, how the years flow by. Celebrated the birth of my eldest child today and I can remember the day she came into the worl like it was only yesterday. Strange how they are meek and small, tender and hollerin as they enter the world and hollerin for food at the strangest hours of the day and night at that young age. And then, suddenly before you can blink an eye, we are busy taking them to school and anxioisly standing by the classroom door when the day is finished.

A few years go by and then suddenly, it’s see you later a quick peck and then out the door they vanish on the way to school by themselves. She has grown into a fine, young woman.

We all enjoyed our dinner of barbecued chicken, jerk chicke, rice and peas, potato salad, chunky fries, and, of course, the birthday cake….white cream filled strawberry shortcake…..
