If my dad had still been alive, today would have been his eightieth birthday. It’s been nearly four years since he passed away. I had been half-hoping that Pod would arrive today but it seems that Pod would prefer not to share his or her grandads’ birthday. Grandads plural – it is also Michael’s dad’s sixty-sixth birthday today. I wish my dad could have been around to see my children – family was so very important to him and he loved birthdays especially because everyone came in to see him and he just loved being surrounded by his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
