Dad turns 70

This past weekend we went to see Dad for his 70th birthday. I can't believe he's 70. That sounds so old but not as old as it used to 5 or 10 years ago. It's funny that as your parents start approaching "that age" what you consider to be "old" is pushed back and pushed back. I guess it's because I don't want them to get old!

No use fighting it. It happens to all of us.

At least he's still in pretty good shape. Both my folks are and for that, I'm grateful!
This last picture is just of Amelia....because she's just precious!

Great pictures. I know how you feel about having an "old" dad. My dad will turn 73 this year. I remember when I thought that was ancient. I'm praying for Gay, his family, and all of the Haitian people. I know exactly how you feel. Please keep us updated.

Your dad looks great--it's amazing how time flies. Amelia is so beautiful--you looks like a blonde version of you!
