I'm not sure he ever learned the definition of "cautious" until he had children of his own, and even then he encouraged them to seek adventure.Granny Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01129064020727041161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634969979683449053.post-89797260245838852162010-05-05T23:52:22.838-04:002010-05-05T23:52:22.838-04:00Jon was amazing to be so fearless.

For him, everything was ...Jon was such a character! For him, everything was so black and white when he was young--he was very happy or totally mad, nothing in between. It was easier to deal with him, in a way because I knew exactly how he felt! As he matured, a little more gray entered the picture, but not much. <br /><br />It is good to write these often-told family stories about Jon. They call him back to me as he was when he was young, so vibrant and full of himself, often in trouble but just as often getting out of it on his own steam. I am glad other enjoy these stories too.Granny Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01129064020727041161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2634969979683449053.post-8415532728143791442010-05-05T03:10:03.467-04:002010-05-05T03:10:03.467-04:00You certainly have a way with words!
