Gwen celebrating her 21st birthday
Today we have been enjoying our daughter’s birthday. Julius Caesar may not have enjoyed this day, but Gwen did. Here she is with her boyfriend, Myles, and the cake can just about be seen under the flames of her candles.
21 is more of a milestone birthday in the UK than it appears in Canada, though we were determined to celebrate in style with cake and champagne.
The most remarkable memory for me is that not only was I present at her birth but I, in fact, delivered Gwen, all those years ago. She arrived very quickly, in the middle of the night and was born on the bathroom floor before the ambulance could get there. For Sue and I, the Ides of March will always be an extremely memorable day!
