a new installment of Crazy Stuff My Pa Says is coming 'atch ya!!!
(I picture the crowd, a crowd, well someone, erupting into a roaring cheer and applause)
They (Nandy and Pa and Aunt Carol) were dolls and came to visit on the 18th. I am glad that Aunt Carol (Nandy's sister) came to visit from Texas. I believe she twisted Pa's arm and got him on the road. :)

Snoozing with Aunt Carol |
While here, he said he didn't want to hold Kinley because "I'm not very stable and if I dropped her I would never forgive myself." I told him he would be sitting so it would be pretty hard to drop her. He still refused. As I was holding her, he got closer and closer and that is when 'Kinley' started talking to him, asking how he 'could resist this face?' and that he 'didn't come all this way to sit and look at me!' So he caved. He tucked himself into the corner of the couch and it started. From the second he got her in his arms, he never stopped talking to her or singing to her.
That my friends is the jewel I have for you today. Songs from Pa.
I remember growing up he would always sing ridiculous songs and now I have a few on tape so Kinley will never forget them. It really was sweet how much he talked to her. I could tell by the tone of his voice how over joyed he was just hanging out with her.

When I showed this last one to Preston, he said, "What the hell is he singing?" and then asked if we would be singing Nelly or some other rap song to our great grandkids some day.
And that concludes Songs from Pa.
Now for a doozie of Crazy Stuff he says.....
He was also flabbergasted that I gave Kinley cold breast milk out of a bottle. "Cold? That's cold milk?! No wonder she cries. Do you put your tits in the fridge to cool them off before she eats from them???"
Pa is my FAVORITE! I love all his crazy stories and sayings.
