BEAUTIFUL! Roses from my son Joey!! Wishing me a Happy 50th Birthday!!!
Well it had to happen people................I turned the BIG 50!! Surprised? Me too!My Mom called me to wish me happy birthday and we got to reminising about the day I was born. My Mom and Dad were playing cards with a few friends one evening, and the guests all left early that night (April 16th, 1956) because the next day was work. My Mom said that she hadn't even gotten to get in the bed when I decided to enter into this world. Water break!!
My Dad rushed my Mom and Cheine(prnounced She - en) (French for DOG) to the hospital at Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. Got my Mom settled in at the hospital and my Dad and the dog had to leave. Back in those days (50 years ago remember) the men weren't allowed to stay-that's the military for you, couldn't even wait around in the hallway for goodness sakes to see his baby girl! So my Dad left with the dog and went home. My Mom said some where in the wee hours of the morning (now it is April 17th, 1956) I was born - Patricia Ann Carlisle, little bit of a thing, 5 pounds , something ounces (can't tell now can ya!)..........blue eyes and NO HAIR. My Dad ended up knick naming me "Blueberry Muffin" cause I looked like one..........2 blue eyes and a muffin head with no hair.
Any who.............I was born, the first grandchild on both sides and the pride and utmost JOY! of the Carlisle and Galligan families. Ah! to be the first!
