My dear Andre ,a joy to hear from you and an even GREATER JOY to hear that you are a very PROUD GRANDPAPA to little Benjamin!CONGRATULATIOS!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!This is wonderful news!I have a son Benjamin (I call him Benj but used to call him Benji when he was little!)If your little one ends up as lovely as ours has ,your heart will burst with pride and love! I have come into this exquisite album again to refresh my picture of where you have been enjoying your holidays!SUPERB! Lucky you!I know what you mean about the Haka -many different cultures find it intimidating -however it is the native Maori Challenge which holds much significance and I always think at least it is up front and honest.Not like the act of terrorism against New Zealand when the spies sneaked into our country undetected and blew up the Rainbow Warrior.New Zealanders didn't like that at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!But let us put our cultures to one side eh? I do so hope that you may spend much time with little Benjamin,so precious,Babies are so wonderful,so new and innocent and miraculous! We shall be moving to our new home at the beginning of October ,really looking forward to it!It is a wonderful old Villa built in the 1890's.I love it so much with the expansive verrandas and wonderful big windows!There is one and one half acres so plenty of room for my 200 odd roses and all of the pets!Can't wait!Sending love and hugs from over the oceans and a kiss on the nose for little Benjamin!-Lynne
