I loved this post by Berlioz very much. I could not help myself and include here another picture of little great-grandson Lucas. I took it in that room that used to be Caroline’s room. There are still some toys and books of Caroline’s for Lucas to play with in that room. Lucas was only fifteen and a half months then at the beginning of November. Now he is already nineteen months. How time flies!
The word “what” has may meanings and can be used in various ways. But I don’t want to write an essay about it as I’m not a linguist nor am I a philologist. I want to write about an eighteen months old toddler, our Great-grandson Lucas, and the way he uses this word and I’m sure he does not know too many meanings of it.
Every time we see him after a short break we are surprised how he has grown and developed. So. it is no wonder that we gaze at him with curious eyes and wonderment. In earlier days he would hang on to Mum’s or Dad’s neck and consider for a moment whether he should cry. Over time he has got used to the sight of us very old people (Great-Grandparents) who stare at him and can’t get enough of him.

I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com
