After I edited my photo I thought about the youth I have been involved with in my lifetime. I also remembered those who helped me along the way.

FUNNY FACE

Why is everybody always picking on me.
It's your funny nose on your funny face.

~

Mrs. Bell would say don't bother that child
she's history in the making, it's recess, play!

~

 Stop being a hater.  Take time out of your
busy schedule. Help a child along the way.

My nephew, a copy cat, I'm like aunt LouAnn
But not the Army, the Navy is where it's at.

On the face of my DEN an American flag
did lay. It was of me at age eleven.
It's in these pages somewhere.

~
 
He, a respectful young man left us early.
I will always remember how he watched, listened and learned...an A honor roll student, the top graduate of his Navel class. 

"I saw a white dove last night Aunt LouAnn,
to Heaven I'm bound.
Thank you for your love and care for me,
I hope I made you proud."

HE DID INDEED MAKE ME PROUD.
