Yeah, now here's one on Debbey. I think she was about 15, and at least 3 nights a week, she would sneak out our bedroom window to meet a certain fella. Dad worked the 3rd shift at "Ladd's Snack Shop" (a truck stop), and so she knew she had to be home before he got up for work. So every night before she "snuck" back in ...she would throw pebbles at our bedroom window, I would open it and tell her if it was safe to come in the back door. One night, Dad got up early, and Mom and Dad kept asking me where she was. I didn't squeal. I stayed true, even tho Dad made me go out in the car with him to look for her. When I STILL wouldn't tell, he said he had to "whup" me. So he did, and that is the only time I remember EVER getting one from him! When we got home from the hunt-- I was in the bedroom with Mom, and sure enough, Debbey starts throwing the pebbles at the window for the "all clear" sign. To her dismay, Mom greets her at the window. And Dylan, this is for you: now that I'm grown, I understand how spooky it is when you don't know where your children are. So don't forget that!Love, Sandi

What about the time you got drunk?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Or did we forget???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I can count on one hand the times I've been "drunk", even if it started at 14!! It wasn't my fault any way...my peers made me do it! Dad always said "you are gonna be stupid during one period of your life, it may as well be when your young and still have an excuse" (when you get older, it's just sheer stupidity!) I was YOUNG.
I am not sure he told you that you would be stupid just once! Remember the turd, the dog, where is OK, don't remember the color of your new car or if it had a radio, dating a man from outer space, getting hit in the head from a soft ball, the times you played a tuff girl, running away from home, I put that in there because after you would never leave, and some of the other great funny things you have done. Wouldn't trade you for anyone else, well maybe there is a couple that could change my mind.
