For Christian.

Thirty-five years ago today, on a cold, snowy day in the UK, I gave birth to a baby boy.  Unexpected, as he was over 4 weeks early.

I beautiful child, calm, easy-going always smiling.  He grew up to be a delightful boy and then a charming young man who never gave us a moments worry.

Sadly, he was taken from us at the age of 28 by a cruel cancer.  A tragedy for all of us.

I miss him very much each and every day.

Happy Birthday Christian.
