12-12-12!


I'd be hard-pressed to identify a happier day than 
December 12, 1969 
when I woke to hear, "You've a beautiful boy!"
(Yesssss!)

The days flew so quickly ... 
1st birthdays are very important, don't-cha know!


1978.
I think this was the year Troy became lost at the Galleria ....
Scary!


Celebrating #18 with Grandma.
Every year my mom gifted Troy a can of cashews ...
and I've kept the tradition alive in her memory.
("Nuts from Heaven", if you will.)


Where did the time go?
These days, my son's a loving Family Man and small-business owner who calls Alabama "home."

  
Recently, when I posed the question, 
Would he like his childhood photo albums?, Troy quipped:

 "That would be great ... 
the girls need to know their dad wasn't always old and mean."  
:)

Happy Birthday, son!!!

I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind, what I’ve put down in words ...
How wonderful life is, while you’re in the world!
