The wife and I were discussing only yesterday what a strange mixed up feeling watching your child(ren) grow is.I remember these days so well. Our son went to school in Spain and as we lived close by he and his friends would descend on us every lunchtime . From bikes they progressed to mopeds and then at 18 on to cars, my poor neighbors never anywhere to park . After he left school Sam returned to UK to work for one of our clients and the house seems so quiet. Treasure these days as they are gone so quickly .

Flowers. They look good and taste good. Slightly peppery.

On the one hand there is pride and joy in watching them become increasingly independent and gradually stretch their own wings. But there is also a sadness involved as you know that time passes and soon they will be ready to make their own way.
My son is eleven now so hopefully we have a while to go yet, but to be honest I am a bit concerned about whether with the teen years coming up he will not increasingly distance himself from us. To an extend I guess he will, it is human nature to rebel a little bit at that stage.
We love it when my son has friends over. We have a large house but we have not been blessed with a large family. My son is an only child, a miracle baby who came into our lives only after years of fruitless effort to conceive. The house never feels more right than when my son has friends over.
I grew up in a very different era. An era when as kids we were always outside playing in the fields or jumping in and out of each others houses in the neighbourhood. These days kids always seem to be locked inside and parents have to arrange play dates for them to get together - and as both my wife and I have to work long hours, we did not have the opportunity to do so very often.
It was a concern for me that my son would miss out completely on the kind of spontaneous association and friendship with other kids his age. So it was a great relief to find about a year ago that there was another boy my son's age, also an only child, living just three of four houses away. Following a bit of encouragement from me, the two have now become great friends and the gang has since grown to include a couple of more boys from a bit further afield.
I suppose we really need to treasure each stage of our own and our children's lives. It is natural that a part of us wants to keep things just as they are, the same part that feels a touch of sadness when looking at old photographs. But things can not and should not remain so. All we can hope for is that what we do now, what we teach our children today will prepare them for what is ahead and arm them with enough values and life skills to make the right choices in taking their own path in the future. Now if we could be part of that path, even in a little way, it would be very nice.
So thank you for your note. As you can see it has touched a chord in me

Not sure about a link to nasturtium but nasturtiums are also edible, flowers, leaves and the seed pods usually end up as capers.

Wow, I buy capers in bottles of vinegar, and didn't know they're nasturtium seeds!
It was a very very long time ago, please believe me, that I realised that sultanas, raisins and currants had all been grapes once upon a time in their young lives.
