My dear Grandfather recently celebrated his 93rd year of youth! I say youth still because to be a man of his background... hardworking all the days of his, and barely having the creaks of old age set in absolutely amazes me! Sure there are signs of roads traveled in his grey hair and character wrinkles; however I am noticing those types of ageing changes myself already! He's a realtively healthy man, living alone and mostly caring for himself! I am amazed each time we visit at the things he can remember! We sat around and were visiting at his birthday celebration and the stories of when he was in WWI, stationed on the Fiji Islands came up. Without missing a beat he was able to read of his military dog tag number. It wasn't a little 4 digit number either!! His memory is sharp as well as his spirit. How truly lucky I am AND MY KIDS to see that an active life will keep you young at heart well into your 90's! I now look forward to birthday #94 in hopes that he can ONCE AGAIN blow out all the candle with one big puff!!

"Don't Blink" is the theme song in my life... I totally dig the words of this song. It makes me think of my 92 year old Grandfather and what an amazing man he is. It makes me think of the current and what I need to do today to live life and not focus so much on what the future has in store!
