Thinking about my pappy

Man, my pappy was in my dreams last night just talking to me.

Well, singing.

Loud.

"Detour. There's a muddy road ahead!"

and

"Abilene, Abilene, prettiest town I ever seen"

and

"She's got dimples on her, but she's mine!"

Just as loud and happy as you please.

I always think of him as my amazon-baby's guardian angel. He died when I was pregnant with her and in my heart I believe that he'd have liked her. She's a lot like my mom and he thought Moma hung the moon.

    Now I've got your Moma's voice in my head singing "she's got dimples on her, but she's mine". Thanks. :P

    I always think of my grandfather as my guardian angel, too. He was my hero.

    Fond memories are like cozy blankets.

    *hugs*

    He would have love our Amanda. As he loved you. Teased both of course. I feel him sometimes especially when I am doing something I know I shouldn't.:P
    He was a great man not perfect but a great guy
