“Birthday Grettings to our Little SON Lee”

Dec 3rd “Birthday Grettings to our Little SON Lee”

“Lucky Lee enjoys the DREAMS of LIFE”

I remember just as if – it where yesterday, we would go to watch “LEE” play “Football” – every parent thinking that their son was the best and greatest, at which ever position he would be playing, but, when everyone would start standing up and screaming for “LEE” – as we could hear over the loud speaker, “ALDRICH running with the ball” – and all the jumping up and down – I was just so proud that “LEE was my SON” – and he was so fast at running with the ball – OUR TEAM would always WIN!

“Hip – HIP – Hooray for Lee and good ole number 34!”

These are just a few, of the RIBBONS, that I had already posted – but, some time, I would like to find and collect all of the different ribbons that LEE has – from the very earliest young days of his LIFE.

When I was a little girl, I still remember my asking my DAD … if he could get for me, a little pony … one that I could take care of … in our back yard … and then also learn to ride that pony… when the pony would be bigger and strong enough to take small kids for a ride around the block… this is where we lived in North Saint Louis… as… back in those days, so long ago… when WWII was still going on… you would see that some homes still had some large animals living on their property, and that they were also used for delivery of merchandise to others… living near by.

I remember my DADDY saying… that he would get me a “PONY” – and I am still waiting – but in LIFE… there does come a day or two to start to wake up to the fact … my DAD is no longer here on EARTH… and I am too old, to be waiting for something that will no longer happen… no matter how long you wait and or even ask for.

So I guess, that NOW, I can stop wishing for that PONY – since I also did receive… that same request from my son, LEE – so very many years ago… and fortunately, I was able to get a PONY … for him!

Looks like it was also snowing in that DECEMBER for Lee’s BIRTHDAY – just as it might be doing TODAY, it is so cold – but we are not buying a PONY, today.

Way back and back then…

As cold as it was, LEE got outside… to start to enjoy his “BIRTHDAY ” present – and …

I sure am glad, that I was able to take a few PHOTOS.

Later on, we moved from here, to another area – where you could have HORSES!

So, from EARTH to the great big blue yonder – we do like to FLY!

And so, here we are, little “brother, Al” is taking this PHOTO of “BIRTHDAY BOY, LEE” – and then – off to see the “STARS” – and whether they will be out tonight?

Nothing like flying when you can see the “CITY” all aglow with the CHRISTMAS” lights on – making for so much more FUN and enjoyment – for brothers that do enjoy doing these things together!

“Come FLY with ME” – we will have so much FUN – to see all the CITY and surrounding areas – trying to out do their their selves – with more beautiful lites – than at any other times of the year!

May the Almighty bless all those – that are celebrating their Birthdays this month – with all the SNOW and excitement of the CHRISTMAS Lights – only wish more happy people could enjoy with us! D.V.
