Apologies for posting some old images to this challenge. The boy-child turned 19 yesterday and I’m feeling nostalgic.

Thank you Terry. Yes, it does my head in to think it’s been 19 years! And although it’s flown by, I still remember his early weeks and months really vividly. I guess when we are new parents, everything is so strange and unreal, we never forget it. 🙂

well a happy b-day to him – and darn time goes fast (sorry to keep saying it) and like how you paired this tribute to the match theme – well done. the air in the first shot is my fav of the post –
and side note – I gave out three “dark side of the moon” t-shirts while on my last trip to Bfl. Last year I found them on a blow-out clearance – forget they were in the bin – and pulled them out for the trip. My cousin, J, loved his so much that it made me glad I had one for him. Does your son still listen to Pink Floyd?

You’re so right about time passing fast, especially as regards kids growing up! I wish he did still listen to Pink Floyd. These days he’s into rap music with lyrics I can’t even begin to understand.

Thanks Amy. Not so much cute now, as brooding and (I think) handsome!
