On my 6th birthday, my family went to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. While there we stayed in a motel. I am not sure why my parents let me walk around alone. But I did.
At the motel, I was SO excited to tell everyone that it was my birthday. When I didn’t see anybody in the walkways to tell, I started knocking on doors, all the doors. When people opened their doors, this blue-eyed cute boy said, “Hi! I’m six.”
They were so impressed and excited about my birthday that some of them gave me money—one lady even gave me two dollars. It was a pretty good gig. I couldn’t understand why there were some people that didn’t open their doors to hear my news. But, I really don’t understand why I didn’t keep up the practice for several years, on a daily basis.
So, if I come by your place tonight, please have the cash in hand. It needs to be in twenty dollar bills—you know, inflation and all.
Happy Birthday to Me!

I don't remember you going from room to room (Did you just take off while I was taking care of your younger brothers Brent and Steve? I was also pregnant with Marc, you know.), but I do remember you doing the same thing at Myrtle Beach--going from group to group on the beach itself. Do you remember the yellow Tonka dump truck on your 2nd birthday and the Easter egg hunt on your 3rd? I love you. Mom
