LAST BUT NOT LEAST...RAB

This is our oldest. He's 22 and very, very sweet. His little brother, LBB, is so much like him that, at times, I am amazed. This is the one who taught LBB the importance of Monster Trucks, the GATORS, and hair gel. He taught his sister

that: 1. She IS a princess,

2. She IS always right, and,

3. She WILL BE 35 when she starts dating.

It's funny when older kids have much younger

siblings. I've had to teach LBB that, when RAB brings a girl around, there are certain things you don't discuss, i.e, "his other girlfriend is prettier", and "are you gonna marry my brother?". Both of these situations have caused a bit of discomfort for RAB and are to be avoided at all costs. Actually, I think the one about marriage caused discomfort in me...

If he brings a girl over and his little sister doesn't give her the "I don't like you and you're not good enough for my brother" stare down, then she has passed the test. Little sister says what she thinks, like it or not.

Stay tuned and I'll introduce you to our dog, Ginger Lynn, named after her aunt Patti.

Seriously.
