Babies

I went to see the new baby of the family. I think the 17th great grandchild of the people in this photo, my grandparents.

I watched my son and my cousins son play and I was grateful for family. Grateful for strong bonds. It was a good morning and I felt better for going. Sometimes I get a bit angry about things but frankly life is short.

My cousin is similar to my grandad in this photo and is the only person to carry the family surname which is really unusual. It is Thynne. You say it Thine. His little boy carries on the mantle. My maiden name has disappeared into the ether. There are no male descendants.

This photo popped up on my Facebook earlier.
