Guess I was just clumsy. So I over-compensated with my own kids. <br /><br />Teddy--Pictures do help solidify a character in mind, don't they? But the wonderful thing about reading is that you make my characters look like whoever you want. <br /><br />I used to put family members into books I read. I stopped when I gave Tom Clancy's DING CHAVEZ my Hispanic brother-in-law's face. As I got further into CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER, I was scared to death my brother-in-law wasn't going to make it out of Columbia alive! My sister would never forgive me.EmilyBryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542349086762747179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-12468979616648934372009-07-09T02:04:50.883-04:002009-07-09T02:04:50.883-04:00good pic, isn't it funny how your mind can cha...good pic, isn't it funny how your mind can change when you connect something with an actual picture.<br />Looking at something in writing I voted for one name and as soon as I saw that pic, I thought, "he looks like a Thaddeus Puck" lolTeddyreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553244883194436385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-41490359857863907262009-07-09T00:15:58.519-04:002009-07-09T00:15:58.519-04:00Thanks to Ms. Campbell.

Li...Thanks to Ms. Campbell. How very nice of her. <br />Like the picture. He is rather easy to picture with red hair.<br />Can you honestly say you wore oven mitts to hold sparklers when you were a kid? I know I didn't. We had sparklers all the time and no one got hurt. You are in more danger of having someone else bump into you with one. I solved that problem, we usually don't buy them.Patricia Barracloughnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-86861928595025810352009-07-08T20:03:39.413-04:002009-07-08T20:03:39.413-04:00Desserts--Did you vote through my website?

Emily I have to laugh at your daughter not using an over mitt for her sparklers, my youngest is 22 and I ALWAYS had to tell him DO NOT climb on roofs of any kind, what did the little bugger do, 4th of July climbed on his garage roof and JUMPED to his neighbors garage roof which is only about four feet away but OMG!!! What if he fell! I too say you can only do so much to raise em right!
