"Number Eleven on the way"

It started out forty years ago that my wife and I decided to have two children -- a boy and a girl. In the beginning,thats what we had and life was great! Then there was another girl and then another girl. We stopped at four and began the family thing for twenty years -- then the grandchildren began. This March our tenth Grandchild will arrive, the eleventh one is due in September.So life goes on and between having chidren and grandchildren one climbs a few trees. Life is really easy if you listen.

Ya might even say it started for you in April of 1946.

I’m ten years behind you and appreciate of every word of your post.
At age 50 with a 10 and a 14 year old, the grandchildren are only in my imagination but the retirement thing. . . Now that’s something I can almost taste.

Seeing as how fast the last 30 years have gone by, I can only imaging that the next 10 will be a snap. I look forward to birthdays, grandchildren, retirement, and trees too!

That was a nice post you put up there.
Eleven sounds like a great number!
