Wanted to send a thank you to my Cowgirl cousin who put on a terrific 1st Birthday gathering for my teenie tiny beautiful cousin...
...So many wonderful folks and loving Kinfolk...so many smiles and so much laughter. Folks, having a good time! Much love and peace for a spell.
In many respects it was a family reunion of sorts...my dearest Grandmother was there, my bride Brenda, my two dear Aunts and my Uncles, sister's, my favorite brother-in-law, nephews, and cousins galore...and then there was Dave's Kinfolk there too! Weeeeeeee Doggy! What a gathering!
My cousin, the Cowgirl, had the gathering at her farm so there was space for the children to run about. Her horses, donkeys, pigs, and goats represented her well by not biting any of them with little fingers, Hell, there was one particular goat that had horns as big as a bloody bull. I would've avoided him by yards myself, but to see these young fellers chase after him and the other goats reminded me and made me forget what it was like to be a kid for a minute.
It felt good to be out there in the country...away from the city. Even if just for a couple of hours. I could feel and sense my Tio Armando and his son, my cousin Monnie out there where they lived and walked. There's no doubt you two would've been right there with us celebrating and eating some excellent BBQ, beans, salads, pasta's, and sweets...
...She's living it and has a beautiful family. A grandaughter for the two of you and a fine husband. She's doing right by you, Tio and Cuz! I'm sure you both are very proud of your Cowgirl.
Cousin Cowgirl, thank you one thousand times...thank you.
Love you all,
Mario
p.s.
Good-goodness, this is what family really is all about.
