ABC Wednesday, B for Babies

 Babies are from another world.

                                                   Our first baby.

It's been a long time ago since I had my first baby, that was almost 50 years ago. Now my children are having theirs. They grow so fast...I often think of the time, that I was worrying about them, especially in the weekends, when they came home late after a night out. Sometimes they woke us up,sometimes they didn't. But I was always awake and could only sleep, when they came safely home at last.



Zondag=Sunday

ABC Wednesday, M for Musical Ship

The Musical Ship
Climb aboard Cooktown’s Musical ship, a unique musical playground created for young and old…no need to worry about getting seasick on this vessel!  Fitted with marimbas, thongaphones, tok-toks, chimes and doof (bass drum), a visit to this interactive sculpture is a must.
This Musical Ship invited the children ( and adults as well) to play

My one and only granddaughter at the time ( 2008)
We arrived in Cooktown on 25th July, 2008 to stay with my Australian daughter and grandchildren. The first thing we saw was this ship , which was a 
great surprise.

ABC Wednesday Z for Zoei singing.



This little two-year-old girl loves singing. I wonder if she realises what she is singing, but I think that she is an adorable, gorgeous little child.
This video was made several years ago, but still...for me it's beautiful!

Zoei sings Amazing Grace



This little two-year-old girl is the same girl who sings "Our Father" on Laurie's blog. I think that she is absolutely adorable.

For those who don't know the lyrics to this hymn(and I am one of them) here it is.

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.

When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
