What's 93 years among family?
Robert F. Merrill was born March 22, 1914. He has 9 great-grandchildren. But in his dotage he reminds Carey and me every time we see him with our kids that Greta & Lincoln are the first Merrills. I think this photo takes it one step further and portrays how proud my 94-year-old grandfather is that his family tree will grow at least another branch.

What a great photo and how touching.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Probably one of the best ones I've seen on our blogs. You should get that framed and give to him.
ReplyDeleteWell, now that won't be a surprise, will it? :-)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, my Dad took the photo. Carey's off-camera, holding on to Lincoln.
Excellent photo. Might I suggest a vignette effect around the edges to complete the antiqued look?
