Happy New Year to everyone on 365. Hope you all have a great 2020.
Continuing my series on the passing of the years as evidenced by the growing up of grand daughter Maggie. As Topol sang "Quickly flow the years . . . "
That CANNOT be the same little girl that I met not so long ago. Wonderful portrait mode. ;-) How you been Terry? I see you're on here about as often as I am. Trying once again to be a regular - we'll see how long that lasts. Hi to Nana!
Happy New Year Terry! How lovely to see your post this morning! Wow how tall Maggie has grown! It has been lovely to see her each year! Wishing you and Rhoda and all your family all the very best for 2020! I hope you are safe away from the terrible fires we are seeing on TV!

Hi Pam. Thanks for your wishes and a very Happy New Year to you
We are OK wrt the bush fires in Brisbane. That said, if Mt Cootha ever goes up, we will be in deep doo doos. Everyone has their fingers crossed that that won't happen. As for the poor buggers down south, it is truly horrifying what is happening to them. But it is the wildlife that I feel most sorry for. Reported this morning that they estimate that something like 500 million birds, animals and reptiles may have been lost. They are also speculating that entire species may have been wiped out. But until the useless bunch of climate change deniers that "govern" this country wake up, we will just have to learn to live with these conditions in the future.
On a lighter note, Rhoda and I will be over your way from mid April until early June. We will be based at our daughters place in Ealing and barring unforeseen circumstances eg Rhoda falling off a bike and breaking her arm, we intend to spend some time up in the Dales and in the Lakes District. We have already committed to a 2 week jaunt around Norway.
Welcome back Terry! Wishing you and your family a Happy New Year too. A wonderful series of photos showing how time flies. I also just realise that I am getting older when I see the grandchildren. Wishing you a blessed 2020 😊
Nice to hear from you again Terry, its a great idea just ran there the years its amazing how she has change only wish I had thought of that with my grandchildren, hope you have a happy healthy and peaceful 2020:)
I just went through the series, what a fantastic idea. I use my Christmas grandchild photo every year for the same overall idea. So nice to see you again. Maggie is beautiful!
Terry! This is so wonderful, seeing Maggie again! Her beautiful blue eyes continue to steal the show, and how she has grown into a darling young gal. Hope all is well with you and your family. Happy 2020 to all. (Please thank Maggie for her willingness to pose again this year.)
The lovely Maggie, so nice to see her again.
Nice to here from you again Poppo and pleased to hear you are safe, the pictures we are seeing of the devastation are heart breaking.
If you are in my neck of the woods on your visit, please feel free to drop by, its pretty flat here so Rhoda should be safe, and who knows I could turn out to be another one of her long lost relatives from round these parts!
Take care in the meantime Poppo and I'll look out for when you next drop by here
