If my Dad was still alive he would turn 103 today, May 19th. I took the above picture some months before he passed away. My Mom and him. I love the way they look there, although they both seem to silently acknowledge that there was not much time left. I wish he was still around. I am sure now we would have lots of things to talk about.Labels: Family
I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, and moved to Ireland in April 2000. Happily married to Mark Lenahan and currently living in Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin. I have had lots of different "phases" or interests in my life and, right now, I am back to my "nipponic" phase, reading lots of Manga and books with a Japanese theme.
I wanted to put the picture below as the main picture in my profile, but Mark didn't think it was very good. Could not resist: it's me and Scruffy O'Bear (but that's another story...)

Hi Andrea.
I wish I would have met my great grand-father.
A big hug (especially today),
Mónica
