October 19, 2006

While I was "putting my face on"  this morning, I looked at the calendar on my bathroom counter and for some reason I really focused on the fact that it was October 19th.  I thought about my grandson who's birthday is April 19th and then I thought even more and realized it was his half birthday today.  (I really get into half birthday's they are, after all, the slide down to one's next real birthday)  So today, Harrison is 14 1/2.  14 1/2 !!! Oh my gosh !!! That means next year on October 19th he'll be eligible to get his driving permit.  YIKES !!!  Where does the time go ?  Of course, he is taller than me now, and his latest pair of shoes were men's size 12.  He's not a baby anymore that's for sure.  He's a young man, tall with beautiful dark hair and very smart and artistic. So Harrison, HAPPY HALF BIRTHDAY from your granny !  The picture I've posted was taken of me holding Harrison a day or so after his birth, April 19, 1991.  How about those glasses and the big hair?

No driving until seventeen over here and for a lot of them, that is too young.  Please do not put more ideas in my head, I have enough trouble with Birthdays without half-birthdays lol but happy half birthday Harrison!
