What a surprise we got last week. I was actually on a call to my daughter in England when there was a knock on our front door. My husband answered and all was quiet, when I looked up I couldn’t believe who was standing there. It was my grandson Joshua, all the way from Dubai. What a wonderful few days we have had. Although Josh has now gone to pJohannesburg to see his grandfather, I am still in shock.

Oh! Sarah, how wonderful to get such a lovely surprise. I do hope you got to spend the whole time with him. No wonder Klaus didn't recognise him, especially in a hoodie and with his beard etc.
What a beautiful backdrop in this photo, where is that headland? Love Chris

We only had 3 days. The rest of the 10 days was in Johannesburg, staying with his grandfather (my ex) and seeing his old friends. He goes back to Dubai tomorrow.

Forgot to add that it is the Western Head here in Knysna. Just down the road from us.

What a wonderful surprise! Just what you needed, I bet! Our Belgium Son and family surprised us a few months back. We were in shock for about 2 minutes then I started crying because it was so wonderful to hugs them and see them and meet our new granddaughter. Josh looks wonderful and I am certain his visit was way too short! Loads of hugs to you and your hubby!! Laura

I also shed a few tears. Covid has been so hard for us all with families overseas

Karen, he is extremely well. His new prosthesis is working well and far more comfortable

Thank you Kim. Joshua was taking a video of our reaction. It was very funny as Klaus had no idea who it was. I have to add that Josh was wearing a hoodie.

My husband at first did not recognize him, especially with the facial hair.

Sarah what a delightful shock and I am sure that you had a great time together. Now to sit back and remember every thing that you did while he was with you.

It was a shock and he has promised he will never do it again. He was so lucky we were in. Normally I bake his favourite things but it just didn’t happen
