Good Tuesday morning. Its a few minutes after four and I can hear the rain hitting the AC unit. I think its stormed most of the night. The dogs are both up eating cheesey hotdogs and cookies. I am drinking coffee, trying to clear the cobwebs from my failing brain.
Thirty-two years ago today William Lee Fleming made his apperance into this world. His Mother only eighteen. He was born already having two brothers, three and two. I have told the story of his birth so many times. I see the family roll their eyes. There she goes agin they think. Thats okay I will probably tell it at least a dozen more times before its all said and done.
We barely made it to the hospital her and I. The doors were locked and I am walking her from front to back. Her doubled with pain. The Doctor barely made it. Why shouldn't I remember, it was very exciting stuff.
I am proud of Will. He has grown into a good man, a good father. Did I ever tell you he was afraid of loud nosies when he was little. Was very spoiled and very loved. He has grown into a man who is there for his Mom and Ron. I know that if Billie needs him, all she has to do is call.
I love all four of my grandkid's, they are extensions of their Mother and each one special in their own way. My little sister loved all of Billie's kids very much. But Will was her sunshine, her life. When I look at Will it brings me closer to my baby sister. Through him I feel her. I know she is proud of the man you have become.. So I hope you have a soecial day. I hope you know how much we all love you. And somewhere just a heartbeat away from life as we know it stands Brenda I believe, smiling. For I know she is proud of you too.
So I will close this off for today. May the day be blessed for all. I will take my Birthday ballons and wander through Blogland hollering, Happy Birthday Will. But for now, I'm outta here.
