My sister and I were going through our 95 year old Grandma's photo album and found a picture of our father. probably not even a year old, sitting in the yard looking cute. then we notice there's a rope around his waist tied to the porch. so we ASKED grandma about it. she's from Hungary and lived through the great depression. Lost her husband when all her kids were below the age of 10 and raised them HERSELF while working and never remarried. she's a tough lady. When asked about the rope her reply was: "well I HAD to do something. I was all alone and the little shit got into everything. they'd probably send me to jail now for it. " all while giggling. and to be fair my dad doesn't deny it. his stories from childhood suggest he may have needed that leash most of his life.
In one of the William Shakespeare related houses in the Stratford area, one a large vertical support pillar in the centre of the house there is a ring around the pillar connected to another ring. Toddlers were put into the ring so they could walk around the post, watch mum working and play with a toy, but were kept safe from the fire and she could get on with her work without having to watch the child constantly. I can't see this (or a rope round his waist) is any different to putting the child in a play pen, a cot, a door bouncer or a push chair so you can get on with essential work for a few minutes without worrying what they are doing. Or perhaps none of those options are now considered acceptable.
Yes I remember going to the 50th wedding anniversary / renewal of vows of one of my family members but I don't remember who. I was about 5, I think, at that time so a decent amount of time ago
They look great, too! I would have guessed them to be about 70 years old in the 2nd photo, but they're at least 90. Love can keep ya young and healthy.
I'm a child abuse survivor, and I'm estranged from my family. Watching videos like this shows me the kind of family and life that I want to create when I have kids. ❤
I feel so sad for you hearing this. You didn’t deserve to be abused. How could you just being a child. I wish all the best for you in your life. And you will make the best mom.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it! 🥰 It means a lot, because my mom is also a child abuse survivor, and she ended up passing on the abuse. The idea of turning into her terrifies me. 😥
So sorry to hear this and sharing here. It sounds like you are self aware which will point you in that forwards direction. Every day is a blessing and filled with a fresh start, you will create your own positive destiny!
So true, they've lived and seen so much and have so many stories to tell. I never got to meet mine since my dad lost both parents as a child and on my mom's side her dad had already passed when I came along and her mom passed when I turned 1. Please cherish the time you have with them.
@@esperanzaarce9563 My heart aches for you. Grandparents and Aunties and Uncles are the best!!! We lost my mom's parents about 6 months apart when I was about 13, and my father when I was 16 and his father when I was 18. That was all difficult enough and I never thought I would feel anything more painful then their loss until I had my own children and then I did and still hurt for them not having them around to know and learn from. So, I do my best to incorporate things they did and tell stories about them so they can at least have little pieces of them to pass down, almost like tradition. There are a lot of grandparents out there though and even some who haven't had the chance to be grandparents, so adopt as many as you'd like. All parties will benefit from the experience. One can also look towards Aunties and Uncles as a substitute as well. Much love and many blessings to you and yours!!!!!
@@theducklinghomesteadandgar6639 thank you for your kind words, it's very sweet of you☺️. My mom was the youngest of her siblings and the age gap with her siblings was significant so the closest grandparent figure I had was my uncle. He married my mom's sister when she was a baby so he saw her more as a daughter than a sister in law and she saw him as a father figure and when he passed it absolutely devastated all of us, he was the sweetest and kindest man and just thinking of him right now makes me tear up. We have a saying that a person only dies when we stop thinking of them, so in a way you keep them alive through the memories and stories you share with your children. 🙂
The fireman carrying the lady in during the Flooding of High River outside of Calgary, Alberta, Canada is absolutely one of the best pics I have ever seen of two wonderful people having a beautiful moment.
@jonel filipek It is rather soothing!!! Did you know if you talk to your plants or even talk near them they grow better? Russians figured this out by accident. They had a potted plant in an office that was more long then it was wide. The desks were lined up one behind the other against one wall leaving a walkway to get to each desk. The last desk had a plant in the corner. At one point many or all of the staff were moved out of the office and the plant was left in the back corner. It was on a military base and so cleaning was still done regularly in the room. They had a radio up by the door that as the janitor came in and went out he had to radio in he was present and leaving as did anyone still using the office. One day the janitor noticed the plant and believed it to be dead so he picked it up to dispose of it, but set it on a table by the radio so he could notify he was leaving. He left forgetting the plant. Over the next month of coming and going the janitor noticed the plant was coming back to life. So they ran experiments to see if it was the talking on the radio that brought it back, by placing same age of several plants in an area where they were cared for properly but not allowed any sound. The other group was at minimum talked to also. The plants where they were talked to were bigger healthier and more productive than the plants not allowed sound.
Thanks for posting this. The "wedding day" lady was awesome but the smile on the rescuers face was even better. I miss my dad so much. Dead now 39 years. But even after all this time there are still things that happen I wish I could tell him. And I hope he knew how much we loved him.
Thank you for being kind to us older people. It really stinks when your heart and soul feel like you're still in your 20's and your body and mind remind you you aren't. Forget things sometimes. You make a shopping list so you don't forget what to get and you forget the shopping list.!!!!
Best part of that joke is that people used to do that. You could put postage and an address on your kid and the mail carrier had to give them a ride to their destination. it was cheaper than a train ride. You can find old photos on the internet of mail carrier with kids until made illegal in 1913
I'm sorry for your loss. I miss mine, too, but I firmly believe we'll be reunited one day when our time on Earth is done, with a life of virtue and Christ. Many blessings to you!
I know the firefighter who was carried the elderly woman! We're from the same town, and that picture is from when High River, Alberta flooded a few years back. He's a really nice guy 😊
Well, that made my day. I’m getting near to being old and I really, really pray that my family loves me as much as the families here love their ‘olds’. I feel a little less scared of being a wrinkly now. AND. I’ll stop objecting when people want to take my picture. Stupid vanity!
I lost my Mema, Grandma, and Grandpa in 2019. These videos bring back so many memories of them and make me happy even though I usually cry through them. Keep the videos coming and thank you 😁
My husband is an ardent Cub fan and whenever he's watching a home game I always say, "Is Pink Hat guy there?" I took a screen shot to show him this picture of Pink Hat guy, he'll love this.
"No sir, you are the President" I'd bet my life savings he also opened the door for his gal, and smiled a fool at her when nobody was looking kind of fella.
My dad died 10 years ago. I so wish he had lived to see my grandson, who is five now. He'd have gotten the biggest kick out of a new little one in the family.
My beloved late Husband was a lawyer. He passed away in 2002, at age of 41 - from heart attack while he's doing treadmil. Three months later, I had the liberty to open his working briefcase, and I found in his briefcase of all our love letters and our diary book, nothing else...
I suddenly miss my great grandma who passed away peacefully in her sleep 3 months ago. She raised me while my parents are away and made me the tough person I am today she’s strict af but always welcomed me with a smile and _kakanin_ every single day after coming home from school.
Old people are awesome. I love my grandparents even if for some reason they want to talk to EVERY. SINGLE. Person they pass. Stranger or not, my grandpa will try to chat with you and in most cases give you a fist bump. My grandma and I just stand there smiling at each other as we hold him up (he is a wounded vet so he has always had trouble standing on that side).
My Grandpa was like that and he passed it on to my father and my many uncles. They are notorious for talking forever too. It was a nightmare to trick or treat with my Dad in the town he grew up in lol. Took forever!
Yoooooooo!!! Those Nike slippers though!!!! Cherish your Grandparents, if you are lucky to have them, there are many of us that lost ours at an early age. The best thing is the stories they can tell, they’re literally living history, you can’t find in any history book. 🥰
These really are awesome. It’s amazing how clever our parents and grandparents can be. I recall when I bought a play girl magazine when I was young, grandma wanted to see. I showed her and she laughed hysterically saying, “ Is his the best they got?”. 😂😂 cherish family when you can. ❤❤
My gran parents all passed before I was born, the last my grandfather on my mother's side died while my mother was pregnant with me, she was going to name me Henrietta Agnes, Henry after him and Agnes after Nan, but my grandfather had told his friends before he passed that I was to be named Molly the nickname for my grandma that he called her, when he came back from the war, he gave my gran a locket with her nick name on it and It was passed on to me, thanks for letting me enjoy your special people x
My mom works as the office manager at our church and she always has stories like this to tell about the sweet (and occasionally frustrating) elderly people in our congregation. It's so nice to hear such wonderful stories.
I'm only 61. These people remind me that the end is near. BUT it is not the destination that counts. We are all going end up at the same place. What counts is how you travel to get there. I don't want to go quietly into that dark night. I want to be celebrating like we won the NBA CHAMPIONSHIP, SUPER BOWL, ALL GOLD MDALS AT THE OLYMPICS, THE EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony Lifetime Achievement Awards) the smile and laughter from a small child, and left the world a better place for himanity. Then it is time to go.
I'm only 62 but I know that whatever time I have left I will try and make the rest of my years count. Just started to volunteer at a food pantry and always make sure I find something for someone at a thrift shop to donate to the care shelters,VA,children's hospitals,local is a great place to start kindness will make your day. ✌🏼Hope everyone has a great safe 2021.
My great grandma lives in Arizona, and we live in Washington (Washington state not DC). She’ll be 90 in February next year. We might go and visit her then. But since she lives so far away, we call her, she’s so cute, she always says “no we don’t say ‘goodbye’, we say ‘see ya!’ It’s happier.” If you say goodbye when you try to end the call, so usually I wait for her to say she needs to go and I listen to her say “goodbye honey I love ya!” And I correct her and go “gram, we don’t say ‘goodbye’ we say ‘see ya!’” And then we just repeat ‘see ya!’ Until one of us hangs up. She’s adorable.
2:37 - Awwww. 4:05 - How to... deliver... a baby. Riiiiight. 5:28- So nice when older people have open minds! 5:43 - Well said, sir! 8:37 - BAHAHAHAHAH!!!! 9:38 - Sorry to hear your grandpa has cancer! He looks like he's facing it with a positive attitude.
I’m watching this video I randomly clicked from my recommendations at 3 in the morning to sober up and the last thing I expected was to see my high school physics teacher and his wife on here
That was brilliant. ❤️I never knew any of my grandparents, and felt as if I missed out big time,and this makes me miss my mum and dad too, my dad was a real character, and my mate
I love ok people we wouldn't have the the things we have today if it weren't for our elders, and for that iam thankful and truely greatful, they just too cute and funny 🥰
Awwww these made smile and cry. I lost my gran at 27 …. And there isn’t a day goes by that I don’t think about her. Oh by the way I’m 52 now. Keep them coming.
When I was little, I was on a walk with my brother, Grandma and my Papa. We were playing truth or dare and I dared Papa to stand still for as long as he could and then he would come and catch up with us when I said he could. We went all the way up the hill and I kept looking back to see when he would start to follow us. I shouted when we got to the top, “PAPA! ARE YOU COMING?” And he said, “You didn’t tell me to come!” He stayed true to his word 😊 Miss you Papa
I'm not surprised this grandpa loves his coloring books. They are a hit with the seniors. My 73yo mother is obsessed with coloring ever since I gave her a book by Teresa Goodridge and a set of colored pencils. She will also proudly show her works and have my brother take pictures and whatsapp them to me. She has like a 100 books by now and her enthusiasm shows no signs of slowing down. As you can imagine this hobby was very helpful during the sad lockdown times.
Yesterday, I went to the forest to pick blueberries with my mother and grandmother. Guess who was the only one that didn't forget to take their phone? Grandma.
@2:34 that will be my parents someday. My mom hates photos of herself, but my dad thinks she’s 100% stunning 100% of the time 🥹 I love this whole video so much!
Old people are simply the best!! I worked with seniors with and without Alzheimer's and they are all funny and a lot of the so quick witted you forget their age. My dad is 79 and he's gotten even funnier with age. :)
Too cool the rescuer carrying ole lady....ya know....when ya get old we get a lil blunt. Say what we think. Why not? Likely should of decades ago. HUGS2U
The best time in my life was when my Grandpa Wilfred Manning worked at Pioneer Settlement in Swan Hill Victoria and I got to ride on Black Bess a steam traction engine that’s still there

You gotta love the smile on the rescuer with the "wedding day" woman.
Soooo adorable!
The second photo was on the cover of Reader’s Digest in Canada, as the floods were in the Prairie provinces.
I personally know the man, he is a respectable firefighter and is a good friend!
@@GB-et4kk …I think the lady he rescued was hoping he would be a little less respectable! 🤣
That was in 2013 in High River, Alberta. A great picture during a devastating flood.

I have one of myself at 4 years old wearing a harness and tied to the back door with a clothesline . I was a rather adventurous child 😊

Elderly people are so wonderful! They have so many stories to tell us if we would just sit and listen to them ❤️❤️
Agree
Yes Ma'am...so many stories and so much "technical knowledge"/"how to knowledge" and wisdom!!!!!!!!!

Watering plants always puts me at peace. You show love to the plants send it back to you. Zen like.

The "how to deliver a baby " one 🤣🤣🤣.

I love the uncle Davids with their matching shirts & white beards. And the grandpa that took his dog to buy a new recliner.
I loved the recliner part!
4:33 that is so heartwarming. this man clearly served the office, not the man holding it.
My mom works as the office manager at our church and she always has stories like this to tell about the sweet (and occasionally frustrating) elderly people in our congregation. It's so nice to hear such wonderful stories.
I wish I had these moments! They made my heart melt! Look, I'm trying to be tough now; can't be making me feel feelings like this! 😆
I can’t give this enough likes! It’s given me such good vibes!
The fireman carrying the woman is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.
Back in the day when grandpa was that baby’s age you could mail kids through the usps.
I’d try it now but would probably end up lost. Or arrive a month late.
This made me miss my Dad so much.
Me too

I'm only 61. These people remind me that the end is near. BUT it is not the destination that counts. We are all going end up at the same place. What counts is how you travel to get there.

My great grandma lives in Arizona, and we live in Washington (Washington state not DC). She’ll be 90 in February next year. We might go and visit her then. But since she lives so far away, we call her, she’s so cute, she always says “no we don’t say ‘goodbye’, we say ‘see ya!’ It’s happier.” If you say goodbye when you try to end the call, so usually I wait for her to say she needs to go and I listen to her say “goodbye honey I love ya!” And I correct her and go “gram, we don’t say ‘goodbye’ we say ‘see ya!’” And then we just repeat ‘see ya!’ Until one of us hangs up. She’s adorable.
2:37 - Awwww.
4:05 - How to... deliver... a baby. Riiiiight.
5:28- So nice when older people have open minds!
5:43 - Well said, sir!
8:37 - BAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
9:38 - Sorry to hear your grandpa has cancer! He looks like he's facing it with a positive attitude.
I’m watching this video I randomly clicked from my recommendations at 3 in the morning to sober up and the last thing I expected was to see my high school physics teacher and his wife on here
What the recently lost mother wrote in the book gifted to her by her daughter. Breaks my heart and fills it with love at the same
Was a bit bummed all day. This video made me feel so much better. Thank you.
That was brilliant. ❤️I never knew any of my grandparents, and felt as if I missed out big time,and this makes me miss my mum and dad too, my dad was a real character, and my mate
I love ok people we wouldn't have the the things we have today if it weren't for our elders, and for that iam thankful and truely greatful, they just too cute and funny 🥰
Oh my goodness! Every single one of these are awesome! 🥰
Awwww these made smile and cry. I lost my gran at 27 …. And there isn’t a day goes by that I don’t think about her. Oh by the way I’m 52 now. Keep them coming.
Awesome grandparents. Guess I've got some VERY stiff competition.
1:32 made me cry because that is so nice and i know what it feels like to loose a pet
Loved the photo of the gentleman with the colouring book.😊
Doris kickin butt on Words with Friends
When I was little, I was on a walk with my brother, Grandma and my Papa. We were playing truth or dare and I dared Papa to stand still for as long as he could and then he would come and catch up with us when I said he could. We went all the way up the hill and I kept looking back to see when he would start to follow us. I shouted when we got to the top, “PAPA! ARE YOU COMING?” And he said, “You didn’t tell me to come!” He stayed true to his word 😊 Miss you Papa
Words with Friends him 41 and I 22.
Been 2 years talking online. Old people really beat you in this game.
I'm not surprised this grandpa loves his coloring books. They are a hit with the seniors. My 73yo mother is obsessed with coloring ever since I gave her a book by Teresa Goodridge and a set of colored pencils. She will also proudly show her works and have my brother take pictures and whatsapp them to me. She has like a 100 books by now and her enthusiasm shows no signs of slowing down. As you can imagine this hobby was very helpful during the sad lockdown times.
God bless our older generation. 👍👍😁😁👌👌👏👏
These people are precious. Making Memoirs.
I’m so happy to see so many relatives loving on the parents and grandparents. So many of them are so alone.
Love your parents and grandparents, while you still have them. They have great stories to tell. They are true treasures.
Yesterday, I went to the forest to pick blueberries with my mother and grandmother. Guess who was the only one that didn't forget to take their phone? Grandma.
@2:34 that will be my parents someday. My mom hates photos of herself, but my dad thinks she’s 100% stunning 100% of the time 🥹
I love this whole video so much!
I miss my dad...
Loved this!
I'm 66 loved everyone of these and the music. 😊
i think I got something in my eye watching these...
its nice to watch humor and not have to worry if profanity will be said. Thank you!
Old people are simply the best!! I worked with seniors with and without Alzheimer's and they are all funny and a lot of the so quick witted you forget their age. My dad is 79 and he's gotten even funnier with age. :)
5:22 now that's a sweater with love in every stitch ❤ 🌈🏳️🌈
Could I get that handsome, brave fireman to carry me…?😉🚒❤️🔥🔥
I have a soft spot for elderly people ..... Everytime i pass them i smile at then just so that they dont think i am being rude or something
Thanks! I would love to have a family like these people!
1:25...I can't even!
old people are just grown up wholeseome babies
This might be the cutest video I've seen all year. So wholesome and sweet and funny and it gives me all the feels!

The best time in my life was when my Grandpa Wilfred Manning worked at Pioneer Settlement in Swan Hill Victoria and I got to ride on Black Bess a steam traction engine that’s still there

Oh man, I miss my dad so much 😰
