This is Caleb

Caleb
is now 4 years 7 months old. He is my 5th grandchild (I have 8), my 3rd grandson (I have 5).

He is growing so quickly, it only seems like yesterday that he was born. Soon he'll be 5 and will be off to school in the new year.

I took this photo of Caleb a year ago at the beach – see how he has grown.

Every Thursday I pick him up from his Daycare and his parents always stay for dinner that night. Once he goes to school things will change.

He is a little darling, and I love him very much - as much as I love ALL my grandchildren.

Hi Janice,

Your Caleb is only a month older than my Jethro the boy in my account. Jethro is now in the Kindergarten, last year was Nursery.

Caleb is a good looking lad. A priceless image to keep in perpetuity.

Have a great day,
Dennis

Hello Janice
Oh he has grown from the link! Here he looks like such a big boy! I love his freckles!
You are very kind to Mom and Dad.. EVERY Thursday! But I bet you also take much joy out of your Thursdays with Caleb!

Enjoy

Love the hair and the freckles Janice. The colours you achieved are reminiscent of an older form of processing, good focus and well cropped.

WOW Janice, it is indeed hard to believe that Caleb is nearly 5! What a handsome young man he is. It is refreshing to know that you are so involved in the lives of your grandkids and that you love them equally. Thanks for sharing these intimate moments in the life of your family. You are a wonderful lady and "trekker."
God's best,
Tim PS my second and third grandchildren (all boys) were born within the past 3 weeks.
