Any talk of flowers brings up a memory of my father-in-law. In his own humble way he kept a fairly good small urban garden. My wife asked a question he felt she should have already known. His reply was “You’re not half the botanist your sister is…” It had quite an impact on her. She loved her father but over fifty years later she still rattles off that line. As parents we do things not particularly well thought out that can have very unexpected results. I’m afraid my kids can cite many similar examples I am yet unaware of.
Last weekend was a bachelor weekend. A wedding shower took the wife and all the local girls out of town. You don’t know what you’ll miss until it’s gone.
I’m a few months older than you, and a year ahead. Kept most of my hair just a little longer. I wasn’t into shaving it off, but I do keep it trimmed. Warned my sons if they wanted their kids to have memories of them with hair they better not put off srarting a family too long.
True, but strangely enough I was thinking of asparagus. One son-in-law grills it to perfection.
