The ELM STREET with GHOSTS – BATS – CRIME SCENE HATCHET THROWING was all Sarah’s ideas.
This was her birthday wish as she turned SWEET!
We helped with her directions – she also had a TAROT CARD reading earlier in the week.
She loves ghosts and supernatural hauntings!
Thanks for reading and looking at the pictures – next blog continues with the front yard before moving inside.
These are all her ideas and she worked hard for two days to bring them to life.
She was not planned – but she was the delight of her sisters – funny – running around – SARAH!
She has had this fashion eye since she could walk!
She is strong-willed – beautiful and full of laughter – funny and not a MORNING PERSON!
She has caught up with her sister Ella who is almost 5’10” – Sarah will soon be the tallest.
She is now a young lady – full of laughter and being so funny.
THE WORLD AWAITS YOU our SWEET SIXTEEN SARAH!

Granddaughter Sarah’s – SWEET SIXTEEN birthday – October – 2022 – HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Recently – two pictures were taken
one of each girl
Taylor and Cassidy.
My gosh – when did they look so grown up?
Cassidy – the little of the two
actually – their difference has about stayed the same
but now Taylor is growing fast
she is going to be really tall
like her MORMOR – Sherry!
MORMOR in Swedish is MOTHERS MOTHER!
Cassidy had dozens of stuffed Panda’s
all lined up by her bed
today she is the TECHIE one
and the CRAFT one.
She also is a perfectionist
everything has a place
and she knows right away if anything has been moved!
Taylor – whom I think will be taller than Ella ( 5 ‘ 8 1/2 “)
and Sarah at 14 (5 ‘ 6 ‘) and going through a growth spurt.
She is laid back – needs her own TAYLOR TIME –
And loves horses and riding!
Her room is full of stuffed horses and horse toys.
We have been monitoring them at the start of the school year.
But – we are now gone
It has its challenges
for both the twins and the monitors.
But – we are glad we have been a part of it for the start.
We will be gone for five months
coming back for Holidays
They still are so alike – I can not tell the difference
if they get excited – and I hear them talking.
Yet – they have different interests
so alike yet so differnet
when they all three sing
you do not know who is who!
I will not be surprised when we come back
the changes in both of them
it is not that Cassidy is small
but Taylor is really tall for her age!

MEMORIES slipping past – making new ones – loving the present.
MEMORIES OF THAT DAY!
At the Great Country Farm – Bluemont, Va.
They were just two years old – family and friends gathered at the Great Country Farm in Bluemont Va.
MEMORIES of a time gone past!
The party was for family and friends of the family – celebrating the fraternal twins Taylor and Cassidy.
They were born early at I think 32 weeks – just so tiny – Taylor the bigger by a number of ozs.
The doctor told Tammy it was time because Taylor was getting all the nutrients.
SO TINY – both just over 3 lbs. MEMORIES!

Blong hair – holding my hand as we walked up the street –
every morning for those early years –
I would take him and go to my parents house –
just him and me to see his grandma.
Troy has always had a heart of gold – never married –
but raised children not his own.
Today they all call him – still keep in touch with him.
He is a very special man!
He can construct and build anything – a house from the ground up!
Outdoors man – hunter – kind – gentle –
and a beard – a full beard!
A man you want on your side
covering your back
but also a man who would give the shirt off his very own back!
Wishing you my son – a happy birthday – the little guy with blond hair no more – a man all grown up – proud – my son.

The coincidence of birthdays –
HERS – 7 – 5 – 49
MINE – 5 – 7 – 49
MEANT TO BE – WIFE & SOULMATE
She is a 4 th. of July baby – we always celebrate with family –
As the Holiday – it seems we all can get together.
They all respect her – they all love her – honesty is her essential being
Ask either one who they admire – ask either one who they emulate
Ask either one WHY they followed her South –
They call her MOR MOR – Swede for Mother’s Mother –
There never is a time when you do not hear “MOR – MOR”
with the little ones
They follow her lead out of love and respect –
inspired by her –
Her compassion – her knowledge –
and leadership – passed down
” GRANDMA” !!!
Then the laughter and giggles –
always from the three oldest .
She is a true leader to many –
she is a inspiration to all –
She is a builder of dreams –
she is a builder of teams
She is known by all as ” MAMA BIRD ”
gathering her chicks under her wings.
Beautiful inside and outside – she leads –
Her MOTTO to family – friends – and team.
Leader she is – mother she is – soulmate –
all to me.
She is the oldest –
so much like her father –
Her laugh – her smile – her insight – her knowledge
Now the Patriarch of the family –
respected by all.
She brings forth a sense of humor –
A compassion for all
never a bad thought.
Always caring for others
That is her
That is my reason WHY !
For 32 plus years – friends –
get together’s – fun – laughter – singing
A celebration of life
For as long as we live
We live to celebrate life.
For years it has been getting together –
sharing memories –
Friend – that is who we are
Friendship – love – laughs – good times – through the years.

WELCOME TO PAPA’S WORLD THANK YOU !
Yes – they are twins – and they had to be taken out early because Taylor was taking all the nourishment!
Today – Cassidy is normal for her age but Taylor is going to be real tall – like her MORMOR –
Swedish for MOTHERSMOTHER!
Sherry is 5′ 9″ and she will be taller than that.
We went back to NVA to watch the little ones and the puppy Marley – and Sarah came for overnight!
She is adorable and is a Goldendoodle – judging by her feet – she will be very large! She is so friendly and loving.
But – you must make sure to keep things out of reach as she tends to chew – thus she stood up and grabbed the hat of our son in law and that became history! LOL
the cousins celebrating by a road trip with Debby and Sarah into Washington D.C. to the city ZOO!

It was a very good day – from unpacking to putting the first of two desks together for our home office
and business – http://www.sf.juiceplus.com.
She selected where she wanted to go and being so close – 8 minute drive – and then after – a short walk on the sand of the beach at Ocean Isle Beach –
We are but 15 minutes to another beach SUNSET BEACH!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHERRY – ssherrylynn49@aol.com the best is yet to come!
Usually – we do not walk this early – but I am a early riser – 5:00 am. each and every morning!
I have been that way my entire life – but I also go to bed early – by 8:30 pm.
I react to what my body wants – if I go past that feeling of wanting to sleep – then I am awake for hours!
But – with that being said – my body automatically awakes the same time every morning!
And then – without proper sleep – I feel lousy all day!
Wide open beach – low tide – gray – white clouds – blue skies and warm sun!
My kind of day!

The letter was in the mail – it was from our son in law
We knew it was coming – he was forwarding some mail to us.
But – inside was a surprise – a letter from our six year old grand son BODE!
Because of how his birthday falls – his parents held him back .
Instead of being the youngest in his class – he now is the oldest.
The letter above is something I cherish – when we stayed with them
after we sold our house – every morning before 6 am.
Down the stairs he would come to their finished basement.
We had a bedroom – bathroom – living room – storage room and another living room!
He would climb up on my lap as I wrote my blog.
Papa – what are you writing about today? He would ask!
This was everyday – he would spend time with me – before he headed upstairs.
On the back of the letter – he drew a picture – a Su bmarine! LOL
He calls us both – using a type of zoom message system.
He tells us what he has been doing – or showing his latest toy.
This week – the week of 2-15-21 – as I write this blog ahead of time to post later
For the first time – he will get on the bus by himself – and go to school.
He needed it – as learning from home is just not for him.
So – for two days a week – he goes to school – the other three is virtual.
His sisters are doing all virtual as they love it and are doing good.

Ten years ago – they were born – early –
Taylor was growing and Cassidy was not
So I think just around 32 or 33 weeks
The doctor decided now was the time
and they were so tiny – 3 lbs. something each
and Taylor bigger – so it has been for ten years!
Tammy – she struggled at first –
and – to be sure the twins were all right
she got to come home first
then – the smallest – Cassidy came home!
Then three days later – Taylor.
There was nothing wrong with either one
they just had to make sure since they were so tiny
that they would eat and be okay.
So the same but oh so different
day and night
Taylor laid back
Cassidy always busy
The birthdays were not planned
it was all in the hands of the doctor
and so now we have THREE BIRTHDAYS!
Thank you for reading Papa’s World

May 7th. 2020 – 71 years old – Pandemic – Social Distancing
Guess I am always going to remember this one!
My wife Sherry – made it a very special day – but she messed up –
and two days before – let the cat out of the bag.
We were going to practice SOCIAL DISTANCING –
BUT – we were going to use our patio which is very large
over 500 square feet and enclosed by a fence and the house
and each family of grand kids will come at specific times
so no one is here at the same time!
The first family of Mike – Debby – Maddy – Ella and Sarah
came at 12:30 pm. They parked outback – walked around the back yard
and into the patio –
where we had seating for everyone but at least six feet apart.
They gave me cards they had made – the three girls –
they always make me special crafted cards.
I cherish them and save each one.
Have since they were little!
Now the whole family except Ella – eats very little meat
so we ordered a pizza delivery –
we paid on the site and they delivered
they do not even see you or knock
they text that the pizza is by the front door and then drive off!
We had also fruit – gluten free chips – salsa – wheat less pretzels
And my favorite cake that we made a special trip to WEGMENS
White coconut cream cake! ( which has been years since I had)
We celebrated by each staying in our own seats – laughing –
and then the text – the second group were on their way.
Time to leave – no hugs – but lots of smiles – kind words.
They left – and then it was time to see the little ones and their parents
same routine – the little ones have followed their older cousins
each in turn made special cards and gave to me
(Tammy – Marcus – Taylor – Cassidy & Bode !
How I miss them all.
They dressed up – the little ones – just for this occasion.)
I guess at my age I am sentimental – but to me –
these are the best presents – the cards
for years and years I have saved them!
It will be fun one day to bring them all out and show them
when they are all grown up!
We spent two hours just the same as we did with the older ones.
Sheltering in place on my birthday – strange no hugs –
no handshakes – but – the smiles and laughs.
Earlier I had gotten a call –
From my two sons back in NWPA –
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD” !
I AM BLESSED – my wife made this all happen –
And the boys called me!
What more could I ask for –
A PUZZLE!
Sherry got me another puzzle – 500 pieces!
And a new warm pull over shirt –
which in this freaky Spring of rain and cold
I SHALL WEAR!
Sheltering in place Day# 56 – best birthday ever –
now to get busy and put PUZZLE # 8 together
glad when this is all over!

Everyone celebrates their birthday on a special day !
It is very rare to celebrate your birthday with your child !
But – how rare is it to celebrate your birthday
with TWO of your children !!!
Nine years ago the twins were born –
43 years ago – Tammy was born –
all on September 3 rd. !!!
The twins had to be delivered early
The doctor said Taylor was growing and Cassidy wasn’t !
And so it has been all their lives
They grow at the same pace now
Alike but different – same as their size –
one athletic ( Cassidy ) Gymnastics –
one who loves and rides horses ( Taylor )
both who adore their mother and MORMOR ( SHERRY ) Mothers mother !
Tammy – played basketball – soccer and in the marching band growing up !
Today – she runs her own business –
Two of them actually
One Health and Nutrition
as a Sales Coordinator for the Juice Plus Company
The other is her own store she opened up over a year ago !
A kids consignment
dealing in only upscale clothing ages 3 months to size 14 !
Her store is open six days a week and she has four part time employees !
So all have the same day as a birthday means days and days of celebrations
Mother and daughter so much alike!
Marcus – our son in law – daddy to the kids !
As the years pass – we have a door upstairs –
on the back of that door recorded with dates and names
are their heights and weight
both progress the same
from the 1 lb. 14 ozs. of Taylor at birth
and the 1lb. 2 ozs.of Cassidy at birth
it has not changed !
