A special day.......

Good morning! I'm very happy to have you, once again, reading this chapter of this blog. I hope you're having the best day possible and that you're recognizing God's blessing in your life this day. You know that their are many blessings, right? OK, OK. Just a reminder. ( :-D ) On to the title of today.
This is indeed a special day for me. If you look back to the chapter this time a year ago you'll see essentially the same words. Today, if He were still alive, Dennis would be having a birthday. Dennis, for those of you that don't know or don't remember, is the brother that passed away in the year nineteen sixty three. After all of this time, however, I still remember with a great deal of fondness His life of seventeen years. The mischievousness of his personality. The twinkle of His eyes when He was up to something. The work ethic that He'd developed in such a short life span. I've said many times, that if Dennis weren't into some mischief He was looking for it to get into. What a loving and protective brother He was! Even after all of these years I remember Him with such clarity. The smile, the laugh and the body language that was His. Dennis was the healthiest guy I knew, which is the reason for the extreme shock at His death after such a short illness. He was only sick for about a month. Anyway, happy birthday Dennis! You are still missed and thought of very frequently! ..........And so it went..........
