I LOVE YOU

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, MY DEAR FATHER !

MY DADDY WAS THE CUTEST MAN THAT EVER LIVED ~ HE HAD A SENSE OF HUMOR THAT WARMED YOUR HEART. HE WAS ALWAYS THERE, AND STILL IS, I SUSPECT ! THERE ARE SO MANY TIMES THAT I WILL BE DOING SOMETHING AND I MAY BE A LITTLE UNSURE OF THE WAY TO DO IT ~ JUST THEN, I HEAR MY DADDY SAY, " YOU CAN DO IT CRIS, YOU CAN FIX ANYTHING ! " AND JUST LIKE THAT, IT'S FIXED ! :) HE WAS A GREAT INSPIRATION TO ALL OF US KIDS. ~ EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, ABSOLUTELY ADORED THIS MAN ~ INCLUDING ME ! EVERYONE THAT EVER KNEW HIM ~ RESPECTED HIM ! HE HAD THE LARGEST FUNERAL THAT I'VE EVER BEEN TO,,,, THAT SPEAKS TO HIS CHARM, TRUTHFULNESS, FAITHFULNESS, AND HARD BUT SWEET NATURE! THERE WERE PEOPLE THERE FROM MANY WALKS OF LIFE, HE HAD SOME COP FRIENDS THAT BOUGHT DOGS FROM HIM........THEY CARRIED HIM OUT. HE HAD HIS FAMILY THAT WILL MISS HIM TO THE DAY WE DIE, HIS OTHER RELATIVES, THEY WERE ALL THERE. MY HUSBANDS ENTIRE FAMILY, ALL MY SIBLINGS' IN LAWS, ETC. LARGE !
DADDY WAS A BRICK LAYER BY TRADE, HE WAS A BOXER WHEN YOUNG, RAISED PIT BULLS, GAME COCKS, HE LOVED ANYTHING THAT WAS "GAME!" RAISED US KIDS TO BE "GAME." HE WAS TOUGH, AND WANTED HIS KIDS TO BE TOUGH ~ WE WERE.
WE ENJOYED HIS LIFE, AS MUCH AS HE DID. WHEN I SAY MY DADDY WAS FUNNY, I MEAN FUNNY! HE JOKED ALOT, HE WOULD CALL ME AND ASK IF WE NEEDED TO GO TO YARD SALES, AND OF COURSE WE DID INDEED NEED TO GO! I LOVED TO GO PICK HIM UP, AND EXPLORE OUR OPTIONS, AND ALWAYS, WE WOULD END UP AT THE " TACO HOUSE " BEFORE WE COULD GO ON ! ONE TIME DENVER WAS FLOODING, WARNINGS ALL OVER THE AIRWAVES! WE JUST CONTINUED TO THE LUMBER YARD BECAUSE HE NEEDED MATERIALS TO BUILD ANOTHER DOG HOUSE! SOMEHOW WE WEREN'T AFRAID, AS LONG AS WE WERE TOGETHER. :( OTHER TIMES WE'D BE GOING ALONG, ( MAYBE I WAS GOING A LITTLE TOO FAST FOR HIS TASTES ) AND HE WOULD SAY,
" BACK 'ER DOWN CRIS" WHILE HE HAD HIS HAND ON THE DASH! GEEZ, I MISS THOSE TIMES ! BUT SO GLAD TOO, THAT IF HE NEEDED ME, I WAS THERE, AS WAS HE FOR ME !
WE WERE BUDDIES ALL OF MY LIFE! WHEN I WAS ABOUT FIVE YEARS OLD, HE BUILT ME A PLAYHOUSE IN THE BACK YARD, TWO ROOMS, BED AND ALL ! NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS THERE ALL THE TIME :) HE ALWAYS MADE ME FEEL SPECIAL ! MYSELF, AND EACH SISTER OF MINE, ( SHARON AND ROCHELLE ) WANTED A HUSBAND " JUST LIKE OUR DADDY," BUT TO NO AVAIL, AS HE WAS TRULY, " ONE OF A KIND !"
I HAVE TRULY BEEN BLESSED TO HAVE TWO GREAT PARENTS WHO ALWAYS KEPT US AND PROTECTED US !.... THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR ALLOWING ME TO BE A PART OF THIS FAMILY ! :) ( DID I MENTION THAT I ALSO HAD GREAT SIBLINGS?)...THANKS AGAIN LORD FOR THEM TOO !
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY ! WITH MUCH LOVE !...... >>>>>CRIS<<<<<

BETTY BOOP

TODAY I'M IN A "BOOPISH" MOOD! YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS? ALL GIRLIE, AND ALL THAT STUFF! TO ME BEING A GIRL MEANS ~ ~ ~ WRITING IN LAVENDER, PUTTING ON "THE FACE," AND WASHING IT OFF, TAKING A BUBBLE BATH, LOOKING IN THE MIRROR AND MAKING FACES AND LAUGHING HARD! MAKING THE BED AND DROPPING ON IT MOMENTARILY TO PONDER THE DAY, OR LOOK AT A PICTURE OF MY TRUE LOVE ~ MY, WHAT A LOVE! OR JUST DOING MY DAILY CHORES, KNOWING HOW PLEASED I WILL BE WITH THE RESULTS! DANCING AROUND THE ROOM WITH GLEE. POLISHING MY NAILS, THEY HAVE BEEN GOOD TO ME! WHOOPS, DON'T FORGET THE TOES~!
AND POETRY~ ~ ~ ~ LOVE IS THE PERSON YOU THINK ABOUT DURING SAD SONGS ~ ~ CLOSE YOUR EYES, CLEAR YOUR HEART AND LET IT GO ~ ~ LIVE IN THE MOMENT AND MAKE IT SO BEAUTIFUL THAT IT WILL BE WORTH REMEMBERING ~ ~ BOOPISH!..... YOU KNOW!.... A ME DAY! >>>CRIS<<<
