This is a delightful and touching ramble of an essay that I absolutely love. You've made so many wonderful points to ponder. I especially like that you don't just say the things, you describe them with a special flavor that paints a picture of the author. Thanks!

    Bless you! I thought it was a better report than to only get two votes, but it felt good and was fun to write and, with your kind review, well worth the time to write and re-write. Thanks so much. Life took me to 25 different countries on business. I was a salesman (industrial plastics) so I talked, negotiated, drank and traveled with many people who were not just like me and that shows in my writings. Regards, Reese Turner

I picked up some of this the first time around, but it is so much better now. So glad I came back to learn about your best days. We seem to be about the same age and your best moment seems to be one I missed. I never held a newborn as mine, all 7 of mine were adopted, the youngest at 18 months.

    You are absolutely correct. Things do not always post exactly as laid out and revisions must be made. I took ill whilst in that process and should have not left in view. But, old men do not think well at late hours. Please read again. I don't care about your stars, but I would like for you to enjoy one of my best tales.

I love your story is so witty and funny. I laugh from the beginning to the end. Here is one example:"have no idea how it happened. But, because numbers one and two had developed many interests other than dad, I welcomed the new little lady into my life. So, it continued... And continues still... The once-young cute blond in the picture with this old geezer, we continue to celebrate together the best years now with grandchildren, or just the two of us, with a lunch, by the sea.." Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

    Bless you for mushing onthrough my mess! I took ill whilst cleaning up the post and doing paragraphs and such. It should have never been left on-line. But, it has been revised this morning and I think I have it in more readable style - with a few changes. Please give it one more read.
