    Things we learn from kids......

     



    Our little Lexi is going to be 4 tomorrow. This morning we were having our usual breakfast together and she told me, "Papa, this is the last day I'm going to be 3."

    Maybe it's no big deal, but I thought it was quite profound a statement for a young lady her age!!!!!!

    Happy, Happy Birthday to my darling "miracle girl" granddaughter!!!!!

    You don't know what it is to love a car until you build one.

    Her and her older sister already enjoy sitting on my lap on Sunday mornings as we go through the Junior Dragsters for sale on Racing Junk!!!!!!!! For some reason, Grandma doesn't think we should do that??????

    Yeah, I'm wrongfully accused of being a bad influence from time to time myself, but hey what little girl wouldn't want a pink hammer and pair of pliers instead of some old doll.

    I think I understand where she's coming from............she's been 3 for a quarter of her life span. For most of you guys that's like......like..........................a LOOOOOONNNNGGG time!

    Just remember Lexi, the best people have a birthday in December. Enjoy young lady.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lexi.


    My Grandson (5) told me the other day. Grandpa do you know a Lamborghini Aventador is actually faster than a Corvette Z06? I had to agree cuz' I'm not sure if he's right or not. hahahaha. He gets his information from his iPad so how can I question that???

    Happy Birthday Lexi and I have some doubt about all this icecream everybody is telling you to eat as it is awfully cold out today so I decided to tell your Papa and Grandma to pack your bags and you all come down here to New Zealand for a Summer Christmas holiday to enjoy some southern hospitality
