“Just ONE MORE DAY – – and then… DENNY’s BIRTHDAY”
“Guess – I have to wait??”
“I’m waiting and waiting – but for how long – do I have to wait??” Seems that – there is still a “Birthday Gift” – on it’s way and it has been to P.A. – N.C. and Florida and in this picture – – I’m sitting here at my “Grandma’s house in Ohio.
The message about a “Birthday Gift” for me on my BIRTHDAY – which is the 24th – – so what happened?? I’m sure that they said that – my gift – was coming via “FED-X” — – but now that I think about it – “I’m wondering if maybe they said “Pony-Express??”
As – you can see – this photo is on the “older” side – and as old as this photo is – – – way back when I was sitting in this chair – I do believe that the “PONY EXPRESS” was not running – guess that – the Indians shot all the Cowboys – those that where riding their horses in the “Wild West” – – – so that today – there surely should be a much faster – shipping company running around with packages in their trucks – and hopefully before I get too much older??? – “I just may receive something extra special!”
“It’s the PITS – when you are a small child and have to wait – almost forever – just for a “BIRTHDAY GIFT!” – – “One thing for sure – I am tired of sitting in this chair – don’t they know that the bright “SUN” is pouring right into my eyes – -and I have to squint – and now my picture is not going to be as nice as it could be – – – only, if I did not have to squint?”
“Just a second thought – – the longer I sit here — – my hair is getting more ‘red’ – – and the freckles are coming to me in heaps and with that … they are becoming so big and red, so… instead of just calling me “JUNIOR!” as I am as of NOW – “Oh well… not for me to worry about what I am called… I just know that my new “NICK-NAME” will soon be “RED” – – – “But not everyone can be a “JUNIOR” – – or even “RED” can they?”
