Reflections

Today is the last day my youngest is two.  I am inexplicably saddened by this.  Time marches forward and he just keeps getting bigger.

Right now, he is the perfect size.  But I know as he grows bigger, he will need me less and less every day.

And as time pushes relentlessly onward, it has taken a man I considered a friend and respected.  He was a good man from that strong and brave older generation that had time for others and built communities.  I wish his family peace and comfort.

May he have eternal rest.

Goodbye George, I still see you in your son and grandsons - You've left a fine legacy.
