MasterM, 21

Today MasterM is celebrating his birthday
somewhere on the Orange River.

We send him our love,
this adventurous young man
with a passionate zest for life
who is our son.

We have learned much from MasterM
but most of all he has taught us
that if you are brave enough
you can make dreams come true.

  4. Beautiful, not beatiful. My primary school teacher must be weeping, having drilled that spelling into us. Humph.

  14. Have a great birthday, Master M. (if you have to have a birthday in December seems a good idea to be somewhere sunny)

  15. I manage to always be late on birthdays. UMPH.
    Happy birthday MasterM. And may I be bold enough to say you are very good looking indeed.

    PS Is that pic taken in Italy? Looks really familiar ...

  17. Am pretty sure that photo was taken in Arezzo last year.

    MasterM certainly keeps his parents on their toes. I am looking forward to the time when we can observe him in the same position ...

  18. It is a beauty to look at your child all grown up and just so damn wonderful. sigh..wow. They each in their own way are so special and such a contribution to this crazy, sometimes scary world..You have all done so well and the world is blessed with his presence....as it is and will be for each of your children.

  21. Oh happy birthday to all of you! Reading of MasterM's adventures is making me feel better already about my son's proposed excursions. The fishtank story is a ripper too.

  25. oh cool.

    That is a big one. The birthday, not the boy. The boy looks pretty perfect and I know. I have lots of them.
