Elizabeth, I wasn't spoiled!

No he wasn't spoiled at all that I can remember. He kind of had it hard because all 4 older sisters bossed him around. He told me on a regular basis that "I wasn't his mama." I'm only 5 years and 11 months older than him. My mom had all of us in less than 6 years. I guess that is why we are close and get along well.

Oh my beautiful babies!

This is the best photo of you all, IFFF, you over look the ragged bangs. (they never were straight - but then mama wasn't a barber either.)

Sissy wasn't a happy camper that day because she had hurt her finger and had a bandaid on it. No way was she gonna smile!

And No, they none were spoiled! That was their natural smell...(o;

Sandy,
If you ran around with your behind hanging out or with your drawers showing and holding your pants to keep them from falling off, like the kids of today - you would not have lived to grow up!!!

mum

No you weren't "spiled", Y'all had a mean mama!

She had all of you in six years. Wow she was one busy lady and I don't mean making dinner. LOL

I love to look at old pictures, and I like to get to realize how the family order is.

These were good kids growing up. We never had to go get them out of jail or anything like that. We had strict rules on dating, no single dating, only double dating. For some reason no guys came around.

I did have to go looking for one when SHE didn't get in on time. She happened to see my car pass then she beat me back to the house.

One time Sandy and his buddy, the one he gave the basketball to for the yard sale, well he & Richie went for a joy ride in Richie's mom's car, only ONE block to the Jiffy Store, and coming that block back, Richie side swiped a parked car and had to call the police. That really upset Sandy. When I got home that night he was waiting for me, said he had something to talk to me about. He told me all about it. I didn't get mad but I just let him know that it was wrong
and they got caught doing such a seemingly innocent thing could get you in trouble. I have always remembered that and appreciated him
talking to me about it. I love him and admire the husband and father he has turned out to be.
