Tonight we went over to the house to visit the new family and then go out to belatedly celebrate Rick's birthday at a restaurant in Yaletown. When we arrived, Karley, Ian and Makai were still out from an afternoon of shopping. Shortly after they arrived home and Ian immediately started to clean up the kitchen in order to prepare it for Makai's bath while Karley put things away. We watched while Ian prepared the water for Makai's bath and then together they gently undressed him. The love and care they demonstrated for their wee boy was sweet. It is obvious to even the most casual observer how much love they both have for this child and each other. The five of us went for dinner at a wonderful Mediterranean restaurant, La Terrazza. The food was delicious; the conversation interesting, the company was fabulous and Makai slept through the whole thing like an angel. We had a great evening and we both want to express our gratitude to the new parents for the gift of feeling the love they have for each other and the best gift of all ...our first grandson.
