I felt like a million bucks after reading your comments, so thanks a million!<br /><br />It gives me great joy to report that the little girl inside the beautiful Elizabeth is alive and well.<br /><br />There are many great memories between your family and ours. Let's hope our great-great-great-great grandchildren are still making them! <br /><br />Thanks again for the stupefyingly kind words!Kevin Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13558399947728948576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6821445767143002065.post-29166441306945094482011-12-05T01:12:53.024-07:002011-12-05T01:12:53.024-07:00Kevin, I must agree with what Hutton said and then...Kevin, I must agree with what Hutton said and then some! :) You are a wizard with words, creating a vivid picture for us as readers, expertly guiding the way throughout the story, until you break our heart by having it end. I wish I was a small child as a friend of Jessica and Maria so I could be invited and go on a family outing with you and Elizabeth :) As for the sound and reaction Elizabeth had to seeing the Fishy scratching bear; I remembered hearing it from her as a child while visiting her family on Christmas Eve! She loved playing with my dad - sitting on one of his knees while one of her nieces (or cousins) sat on the other and discussed the advantages of "being" a 3 year old adult. Dad played along until he'd tickle or make a face and then both girls would loose control, making that "sound" and dissolving into fits of laughter! I'm so happy that the beautiful woman Elizabeth is still has that little girl living happily inside!<br /><br />Keep up the fantastic story weaving, Kevin! You are creating an invaluable treasure to be loved and enjoyed by your and Elizabeth's great-great-great-great grandchildren's grand children and then some :)hyphen61https://www.blogger.com/profile/14663065163100639569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6821445767143002065.post-67081966574167218732011-12-01T12:49:55.723-07:002011-12-01T12:49:55.723-07:00Hutton - Sir, I tip my cap to you for your perseve...Hutton - Sir, I tip my cap to you for your perseverance; however, I must strongly protest the use of profanity on my blog (while privately being very pleased). I'm the only one who can swear on my blog dammit!Kevin Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13558399947728948576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6821445767143002065.post-12362717287475561972011-12-01T12:09:18.250-07:002011-12-01T12:09:18.250-07:00I thoroughly enjoyed your narrative about your Unc...I thoroughly enjoyed your narrative about your Uncle Day excursion. What you might not understand is those of us who perserved did so partly out of the creepy interest people have when looking at other people's lives (like a reality show), but also becuase we can relate. Additionally, it must be pointed out here that the main reason for me is because you are a damn good writer. I thoroughly enjoyed your recounting of Uncle Day and I am convinced even more than I ever was, that Elizabeth must really love you! :)Huttonnoreply@blogger.com
