My Melting Heart

I’ve been quiet for awhile as I was so afraid I would let out the secret.

Let me explain.

This is a photo of my Mom’s dad, my Grandpa Hill.  (Harold Hill, Jr.)   You’ve read about him before, remember?

Well, for Mother’s Day this year,  my sister and I orchestrated grandchildren Sailor photos like Grandpa’s for my mom’s gift.   I went home to Chicago this past weekend and gave them to Mom, so now I can post them on here!

Here’s Punky:

And my all-time favorite photo from trying to get Punky’s pose…

He looks so grown up, like he’s going off to war!  My heart just melts when I see this photo.

    What a great idea! You’re right, Punky does look like he’s just been drafted. Heart-rending!
