5. That's a bird, native to Papua New Guinea.

Can't think of its name ATM, but let me see ...

On edit, a Bird of Paradise.

13. There's this lump in my throat.

For many reasons, some of which I won't list because they'd spoil this wonderful thread but I'll just say that I wish this planet could stay this beautiful.

You and I are both lucky to have such amazing offsprings.

My 29yo son sent me the most touching e-card where he thanked me for teaching him "how important politics and having a reasonable worldview are...and never letting me (son) get away with being a spoiled, narcissistic person who can't be kind to other people."

14. I was lucky in both of my sons.

The one who sent the video, thanking me for" giving" him this world, does not normally express feelings like this, so it was extra special.

[Duppers]

15. I sent the video link to thank him

for making my world more wonderful.

It's when they surprise us with an outpouring of emotion that touches our hearts the mosts.

Thank you for sharing this, dixiegrrrrl.

16. So beautiful. Kleenex indeed. Really makes me

sad to think that we are on the verge of losing this because of greed and ignorance.

[dixiegrrrrl]

17. That same sweet son, and his brother, both decided to not have children

Mind you, they decided this all by themselves over 20 years ago, independently of each other.

Prescient lil buggers.....

18. Bless them and you for sharing this with us!
