“Happy Birthday Alan… from All of US”

Jul 12th “Happy Birthday Alan… from All of US”

What a wonderful day it was…. all the family getting together for Alan’s big BIRTHDAY Party… and all of us finding things to do… while the finishing touches were made on the “Good Eats” that Alan had requested.

When there are little ones … especially when they are your favorites’ and just want to be helpful and learn new things to do… I kinda planned on this ahead of time… by bringing my “arts and craft” handy dandy box of stuff that would keep Little Lex and ME busy doing… making some important stuff… while everyone else did all the hard things, that you need to do when getting everything ready and done up and just right on!

Little Lex was so busy with all of the “stickers” that we had to work with … putting on sheets of paper that would turn out to be “BIRTHDAY CARDS… for his UNCLE ALAN” and then we had every color of pencil and crayons… fat and thin of every color possible… we had string to make garlands and even a hole puncher so as to thread this all together… and even envelopes for the finished products …. just so we could tell “Uncle Alan” all of these beautiful creations… came VIA the Express MAIL… from our extra special “Mail Carrier Lex… himself!”

Just so Little Lex knows… a hundred years from NOW… that the little arts and craft table that you are sitting at… is so cute and handy for the little one… and I am so pleased to see that Lex is sitting so comfortable and doing so well… but … for starters… I could not sit at the same table with little Lex…. my bones just will not bend… backwards and sidewards and upside down… and or how every one would need to bend them… just to be able to sit at your “CREATIVE” table!

Somehow… I did find something… like a footstool… and how I ever managed to get down there… I do not know? But… you should have seen me looking for something to pull myself up from there … when we were done.

I looked and finally figured out… that I would need a strong arm of a person to pull me up and get my legs straight… hopefully wanting me to stand on them… as I think that my legs had temporarily turned to mush…were now wondering and would have asked me the question… “If they could only speak and scream”… “What in the world do you think “legs” are suppose to do…. when they are no longer working… as they once did so very well… in that young eighteen year old body… that you now… no longer have!

Little Lex did see to it … that his favorite UNCLE Alan received all of his fine gifts and mail that we made … and Uncle Alan carried Little Lex in his arms… because Little Lex just loves to be in his strong arms for long as possible…because Little Lex does not want Uncle Alan to leave… he just loves him so much!
