This first week of 2015 was a monumental week for me
A couple of years ago, probably when I was feeling a bit down,
I prayed the prayer of a patriarch (look up Abraham, Isaac and Jacob if you need to understand the Jewish Christian heritage.)...but there are plenty of other Patriarchs & Matriarchs....
I think of Henry & Lillian Clark for example,
who would never have thought of themselves as such
and yet parented 4 daughters, 2 sons, 9 granddaughters, 4 grandsons who in turn have parented 8 daughters & 7 sons...
this will at least give L something to check and tell me I have got the numbers wrong
I prayed as Abraham and Sarah had prayed...
or tried to... that I too would be the father of a generation.
She's looking pretty good so far,
more than one person has commented that she would appear to have her eye on me....
and those long curly baby fingers...
well I am pretty well wrapped around them!
