I confess, i gave rr the Squirt name
. Mom had 4 boys, i'm the oldest, dad was 6ft.2" mom 5ft.4". Myself and little brother are 6ft1" Jim is 6ft.2"and John is 6ft3" (Jack, Jim, John,Jr.). Mom was a loving, caring, and very observant mother, but had rules you didn't cross over, she was quick on her feet when we were growing up and like most mothers had one target in mind when she came after us.
. Well after reading rr's many post about her family, neighbors, beekeeping, and her undying desire to get back into beekeeping after her sting reaction (few people would go through what she has), made me think of mom. She could be hardheaded,determined, stubborn, and mean
,so i ask rr how tall she was, and guess what 5ft4"
. Our great aunt (Lotty) lived next door and would yell at uncle Roy to come and see the little Squirt(mom) chase one of us boys with a switch in her hand (When we was all taller than her) they would laugh abd say it was the funniest thing they ever saw :
. So from reading her many post about what all has happened to her and her reactions to them (what she did or what she was going to do about it) put me in mind of my mom, and by the way mom didn't like to be called Squirt. So now you know, i really thought it would fire her off
but found out she has thick skin and a good sence of humor. Jack
