What a wonderful day to remember, November 4, 1974 at 4:04pm! You were born. You gave me 35 years of memories, mostly good. It's what I hold on to, what gets me through to the next day. Some fond, happy memories I cherish of you through the years are:
The day you were born, you were the only boy in the nursery with about 5 girls.They used to say you had your own harem.
When you came home, Aunt Debbie was living with us and we took a picture of you every time you made a different face.
When we moved to Fl., you accidently fell off the changing table and was rushed to the hospital. You had a hairline fracture! I was so scared for you!
When you were about 3 we were waiting in line at a new store opening and you pulled a metal line marker down on your head. They called an ambulance and we went to the hospital and you got 3 stitches in your head. Everything was paid for by the store.
When you were about 4, I tried putting you in child care so I could go to work. You screamed everything you saw the school and clung to me when I tried to leave. They said you wouldn't play with the other kids, you sat behind the door and waited for me to come back. I took you out of daycare after 2 weeks.
When you started 1st grade, you had your 1st girlfriend, Darcy Montgomery. On Valentines Day, she came to our house in The Colony and brought you a card and chocolates.
In 2nd grade, you were caught in a photo with the school's crossing guard because she was dressed in an Easter bunny costume and the photo made the local paper as well as newspapers around the world.
These are some of my favorites. I can't list them all, but I treasure them all.I always called you my "shining star" and I still do. You had alot of talents> skateboarding, rollerblading, amazing artist, computer expert, animal lover, BMX and more. Thank you for these memories and more. I miss you and love you so very much. I hope there's a celebration for you in Heaven as you would now be 47. Forever and Ever, "Ma"
