“DADDY” *** DENNY Jr., *** ME…

ME 001

This is  “DADDY”  holding … Mary Ellen and our new addition… little baby, “DENNY Jr. – – and we are in the back yard our our…  AUNT Irene Brady Riley.

Since… little “DENNY” was born in the last part of January…  it is now time to get out side in the “SUN LIGHT” – –  and warmer weather    and build up –  in  getting some natural   vitamins    – – – as  I remember  – – when we were little – –  we always   received  “cod liver oil” – – and that is something that I feel more people should  do. The reason  being … I’m  going  with – –    that thought  – – is that you do take your vehicle in to the repair shop – to have the oil changed and  all  moving  parts …   greased and oil – – so that all parts move – without squeaking – –  so…  why not  apply the same oiling to the bones in the body. 

In addition to that… my MOM  – – would make for us a very good drink – – using “OVALTINE” powder – she would  order  – – the large five pound can – – from  one of the big department stores – – in the downtown Saint Louis area . That is still a favorite of mine – – and I know that you can still make a very good “Malted MILK Shake” at   home if you like – – once you do – – you will always be wanting more!

One other thing that I remember… while we would be visiting at AUNT IRENE’s house — I was always   fascinated by the little “canary”  in its own cage – – that she had in her kitchen. When we would be sitting around her kitchen table – —- it was FUN to actually talk to a little “bird” in its cage – – and bouncing from one perch to another – – and keeping  us entertained with the beautiful singing – – I always wanted  a small bird and cage of my own – – but I’m guessing – – with small children – – we would have opened the cage door and then  –  –  well – – who knows what happens in a situation like that?? 

Getting close to “FATHER’s DAY” – – and it sure is good – – to always have more “GOOD MEMORIES” –  and  to be able to give THANKS to the ALMIGHTY CREATOR – – – for  giving to me – – the best of FAMILIES – – to be born into!
