The Grandchildren

"The same blood

flooded through us

Red threaded through gold

The honour."

Kerrie O Brien

I remember the first time that Karl told me Sharon was expecting a baby in early 2001.We were in a taxi coming home from a night out in town when Karly told me this mind blowing news.When I woke up the next afternoon,I thought that maybe i had dreamt this up.Thank God I hadn't and Benjamin George arrived in September 2001,our world was perfectly joyous.A year later our beloved Mia came along.It felt like a miracle,a female Symes,Given that Dad had three boys,i never knew what it felt like to have a sister so it was incredibly exciting.Then the twins came along.I will never forget the night they were born.A massive storm was blowing like a portent.They are the perfect yin and yang,they possess everything between them.Hilarious,such warmth and a charisma like I have never witnessed before in my life.Karl and Sharon,thank you for the greatest gifts of all,new life.We are forever in your debt.It gladdens my heart to think that Dad had fifteen years knowing and loving them.The grandchildren have the four greatest grandparents ever given to any children and will always be in them to guide them through life.I have no doubt that they will always do the right thing and that's the only thing that matters. You will never know how much light and joy that you have brought into our lives. Your adoring uncles j and Mark.
