Carson at 1st Birthday

Today is the birthday of my first and oldest grandson, Carson. Today he is thirteen, a teenager. I am proud of all three of my grandchildren, Grafkids, but most proud of Carson for his great imagination. Since he was a baby he has been exercising it. He is a constant reader, always with a book nearby. I pray that he keep his great imagination throughout his teen years and beyond.

Carson’s father, my son, was very serious as a child. His younger brother, my deceased son, Peter, until he got ill in his early 20’s was just the opposite, a happy go lucky child. As children they were so different but always got along. One took everything seriously and the other took life humorously. Having a conscientious son and fun loving child made for good balance.

We all need that balance in life, being serious and humorous. Imagination, perhaps, is the way to bridge the gap between the two.
