My Three Brothers

When I was young and talked about how many

children I wanted, I usually said I wanted about 5.

But, I always said I wanted a boy first.
Boys were obviously not in the plan for us,

and I wouldn't trade any of my girls for a boy.

But, my reason for wanting a boy first was

because I loved having older brothers.

I always felt so protected and watched over.

(and occasionally teased)

We've had a wonderful day,

even though I did further build my reputation of

somehow being directionally challenged.

I (very unintentionally)
misled the golfers on where

the golf course was.

I wasn't there (fortunately),

while they went 12 miles into the

middle of nowhere to find the

golf course that was actually

just 2 miles away.

While they were getting lost,

Lynn, Lynn, and I did our patriotic duty

and stimulated the economy by shopping.

Then we've had a day of eating, talking,

and watching a beautiful photo and music DVD

of the Anderson family put together by Richard.
