Learning to walk.
When your born, I wanted to take you for a walk in your pram but Dad said I would have to prove to him I could walk without falling [you know what i was like ] So I marched up & down Riverside to prove my point .After doing 10 lengths of the street. I made my way back into the house with a huge big grin only to fall in the door. So I did not get to take you out. Miss you so much. xXx
Old Shep
Billy do you remember when I used to play Old shep(by elvis) and let my friends stand outside the door to listens to you crying, what a cruel sister I am. Love and miss you more each day xxxxxxxx. I also remember getting up at 2.45am on Christmas day to come and pick you up at the dreadnought in Bathgate only a sister could do that. And all the drunken nights that we had in Edinburgh. Wished I could do all that again.xxxxx
