This is Samuel's sunflower. He planted it last week at nursery and has been eagerly watching it's growth.
Every day we have to water it and check to see if it has "started growing". Samuel is fascinated by the fact that this small thing can grow to be 'even bigger than Daddy' (and I'm 6'2" !).
Which brings me to the title of today's blog. In the same way Samuel is fascinated by the growing of the seed, my wife (Babs) and I are fascinated by his growth and development.
On an almost daily basis, he continues to amaze us with his knowledge of new words, or the way his inquisitive mind works. Which in turn, leads us to wonder what the future will hold for Samuel. What will he be when he grows up? A pilot is top of the list at the moment (cheap holidays for us!).
So, whilst the sunflower seed continues to grow, we are also watching our very own acorn grow! Although, in our eyes, he's already a mighty oak!
This is a soppy Dad signing off on a Friday evening.
