That are worth remembering..

One is Julie Andrews in the Sound of Music.

Another is the death scene in Blade Runner....

And the 'King and I'

And Mad Max...........

Or seeing your children being born, or seeing their children for the first time.

Being in a 500-strong choir singing Beethoven's 9th Symphony.

These are amongst the memories that I savour.

It was special, alright! After I picked up my jaw, I think the words I used were "Holy S#I+!!! There's TWO???" :)

I just bought Baby B his first car. If Baby A ever gets off his @SS and takes driver's ed, he might get to drive it, too.

Hmmmmmm....
You just made an old man smile.
And some days, that just does not come easily to me.

Best of life to you.

And baby B too.
