Milestone Reflections

from Tall And True Short Reads

My parents separated in 1967 when I was five, and my younger brother and I went to live with our grandparents. Nan looked old to my young eyes, and leathery Pop ancient. But born in 1907, Nan was only sixty when we moved in, a cause for reflection when I reached my milestone sixty in March 2022. Milestone Reflections is a blog post written and narrated by Robert Fairhead from the Tall And True writers' website.
