Handsome baby wrapped in blue. Then walking will be obtained. Running will be his next goal. First day of school will come at last. His teenager years could be rough. Time now to go out in the world. He’s getting married, what a joy. Photo: Christian Gomez Howdy y’all. It’s me, ninong7 aka UJ aka John. Just a short intro about myself. I am a Texan that has retired in the Philippines. I moved to the Philippines with my wife back in May 2010. I am retired from the US Air Force. The music I like is mostly Classic Country and Classic Rock. I guess you could say that I am “Classic”. I play dominoes when I can find someone that will play, I play chess, cribbage, spades, hearts, Empire Builder, Rail Baron, Acquire and a few other games. I like to write poems and stories (although pretty novice) and I love learning about history, just about any history. I’m at home on my computer a lot but if I could afford to, I’d be traveling and documenting my travels to post in my blog. I hope to get to know a lot of you through PeakD and Discord.
With his diaper filled with pooh.
Always seems to be bawling.
Soon everywhere he’ll be crawling.
He’ll need to be potty trained.
He will resist, but will prevail.
Gomez boys are not born to fail.
Running wild, out of control.
Always falling down, getting hurt.
Learning then to be more alert.
You wonder how time went so fast.
The schooling years can agonize.
But when he’s finished, he’ll be wise.
If friends influence him enough.
Now good parents come into play.
We know he was raised the right way.
Where he finds himself a great girl.
A girl he loves like no other.
So wonderful, like his mother.
Now he has his own little boy.
Lola and Lolo stopping by,
to see their new little guy.
