Today is a day of great happiness and sadness in the Allan family.You see the 1st of September is the birthday for my three grandchildren. 2007 brought us the early birth of my grandsons Charlie and Jackson,sadly they were so small they weren’t with us long and now live forever in our hearts and thoughts. I think of that day and of course wonder what they would be like today if they had survived. I have a little tear and then a small smile for them but then we have to move on, as everyone tells you, but they will always be with me this I know.
Then low and behold 2008 brought us our beautiful granddaughter Lauren. What a joy she is for everyone in the family. She was early too, but I think she came to ease our pain on this day, and she has.
So, Happy Birthday my beautiful grand children, I love you all. Kisses and hugs and a few tears as well.
