look at my About me picture
I wrote about this picture in January 2010 one of my first blogs but there is so much more to write about. When we were less than a year old a picture was taken of us lieing on a blanket facing each other, so i thought it would be great to have a picture of the two of us again 50 yes i said 50 years later so thus the picture. And boy how we have changed. growing up was great because we always had someone to play with even all the way up through college. our paths were pretty much the same until the middle of college. stanley graduated in 4-5 years me i didnt. i quit college to pursue a career in funeral service. i got married move to dallas and went to mortuary school graduated and started a 33 year and counting career in the funeral industry. I did finally graduate from wayland baptist u. with a degree in 1998. so really i have two diplomas. I have been married 26 years i was in the funeral service 7 years before mortuary school. I have 4 children wil is 23 and graduating from wayland baptist in dec. 2010, daniel is 21 and a soph. at wayland steffanee is 18 and will be a freshman at WT in canyon in the fall and jeffrey is 16 and will spend his junior year in austria as a foriegn exchange student with the rotary international. kim (my wife) is a grad student writing her dissertation and will graduate in may 2011. life is great and that is me. stanley has been working for the same oil company since 1984 i think. he has been married since 1987 and has 9 kids yes i said 9. we are a lot alike but yet we are different too. he goes to a non-denominational church which is great and i still go to FBC tulia although all my kids go to non-denom churches (doesn't matter where they go as long as they are going and worshiping God.) I couldn't handle 9 kids i bearly handle my four. Stanley's family is a great family they love each other they care for each other they are just a great family. Even though we look alike in the pictures ( and we really do) although i have more hair, we are different in a lot of ways, but that is what makes us unique. We don't get to see each other very much but that is ok with our own lives we are pretty busy. maybe in retirement but for sure in heaven. lots of love.

OK, you're right I did read the "Mirror Images" post last Jan. But being over 50 is a huge adjustment, I can barely remember what I read yesterday little lone last Jan.! (HaHa) The update on the family and the brief synopsis is fun to read. Love you.
ReplyDeleteI loved reading your post about you and your twin bother. Having twins is special and being a twin is special. I am very proud of your family and the accomplishments of each one.

Just a correction on the above post. I meant brother and not "bother".
