"Happy birthday old man"

"Granddad hmmm there is so much I can so there is so much you have taught me about hunting fishing and gardens and life . And I removed the stories of the old days. I removed living below you and every morning a 6 you would come down n get me for some coffee and breakfast. Or how would go out hunting but we wouldn't hunt you would teach me abt the things I can eat n not to eat. Or just the impact you had on my life no we didn't have money but you had wisdom and taught me what wisdom is. What you have passed on to me is how I should be a grandfather to my grandkids one day and I know you had ups and downs but I could not ask for anyone else as my grandfather.ur my best friend and I miss ya everyday so please keep eye on me and my family as we grow please"
