Wes Jude is Two Months Old!
Estimated reading time: 1 minute, 3 seconds
My second grandson, Wes Jude Nucero, is two months old today!
Wes is a bundle of joy, and his smiles, like his grandmother, spread happiness to all who see him.
There are moments when I wish I could see him twenty-four/seven. But then I remember the benefit of grandchildren is not being responsible all the time.
There are two truths he reminds me of when I see him or look at photos.
- One is how much joy Jan and I had to raise his father and uncle.
- The second is how much I wish Jan could hold Wes.
I know that it will never be possible for Jan to hold him. However, when I do, I kiss him twice, once for me and once for Jan.
As I mentioned in the stream, the day he was born, Jude, the middle name, is in honor of Jan, the love of my life, Mike’s mom, and Wes’s grandmother.
It is also a nod to her love of music, especially The Beatles and their song Hey Jude.
Every time I think of Wes Jude, I start humming Hey Jude!
In this new phase of my life, I know one self-evident truth, the love Jan and I shared will never die!
