My poor old dad is nearly eighty and the wear and tear, to his knees in particular, is painfully obvious. It serves me well to remember that inside that imperfect body beats the heart of this proud and handsome Coldstream Guard.
The young man staring out from this photo beneath his Bearskin had a whole life ahead of him. That life would include a 50 year long (and counting) marriage and the raising of children.
We may have had our differences over the years but I hope that he can be proud of the woman I have become as I am of the man he was and is now.
