without going into any detail whatsoever I’d be slightly amiss to not think that it’s been a tough old time recently. as always the support of my incredibly kind & loving wife is what’s kept me going.

along with the caring wishes & thoughtful prayers of those around us, we’ve somehow managed to lumber through since wee Orla joined us nearly 6 weeks ago.  her baptism was beautiful & she enjoyed Papa Bob’s 70th Birthday lunch too.

we’re all utterly delighted that she’s making such great progress and savouring every little new thing she does.  kids can be devils, I should know from my own efforts, but the undiluted joy they can bring through simple & innocent comments cannot be underestimated.

i thank my wife for two incredible children & i look forward to growing even older & grumpier as we take them on the early years of their paths. it’s the most difficult & rewarding job you can do – if only more people realised how lucky they are !

Having a two-year-old is like having a blender that you don’t have the top for.
