Hello Grandad

entry picture

Hello grandad it’s nice to meet you for the first time

Thank you for being patient with my mum and dad

I have travelled for 9 months to reach my destination

Here I am on planet earth and it's not so bad

On the morn of 24th June 2016 at the hour of 4:50

I made my dramatic entrance into a world brand new

All dazed confused and sleepy is just how I feel

The clock is ticking and I have so much to do

A brand new guy with a mission that is who I am

Ready to make a name for myself across the globe

Hope that I will be a credit to my fellow woman and man

Shine my light like an ever beaming strobe

A new life created from love and passion

Wondering what on earth the future will hold

Destiny is waiting for me to follow its winding path

I hope that my life's story one day will be told

I am only small but I will grow and thrive

Help me to explore this green and pleasant land

Show me the right way on my life's journey

Take me gently by your wise and guiding hand

I am a special gift from the lord our universal God

My name is Oliver Thomas Todd

Hi Harry :) - nice to hear from you again.

Welcome to the grandad club

He was only a day old when the picture was taken. I feel like a giant and a dinosaur.

Look at the size of his fingers against your hand!

busy getting the milk down her)
