Aunt Tracy

Once again, I have heard that I am to be an aunt.

Yay!

I love hearing this particular piece of news. It never gets old!

My sister and brother-in-law will have an addition to the family in the late spring of next year. This will make a wonderful number of three.

I have three nephews and two nieces from three older siblings, and I am *always* excited by the prospect of another!

Sister-Dear, if it's a boy, I am going to call him "Old Blue".

...Just to warn you.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!

It must make you feel very old.

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick…..

“My sister and brother-in-law…..”
Very shrewdly put! It clearly indicates that they are, of course married.
Saves me asking!
It probably also explains why some Americans describe both parents as “having” a baby- to open the way to state that they are married.
Wise. One point to America.

That kind of comment should NEVER be the last one. It throws people off so that they are thinking about something besides the post, but leaves nothing to be said about the comment itself. Mr. Briody, you are one strange Irishman. And you need to get a job.

Little Lizzie said...

Oh be nice to John.... He has a job. His job is to.... Sleep and.... pray(?).... For us poor rude people. Right John?

:)

Disciple said...

Thank you Little Lizzie.
You are the nicest person I have ever known.
Yes, I do pray.
Your name has been lifted to a position closer to the top on my prayer list!

Tracy said...

John!

Little Lizzie said...

Why thank you, John. I shall raise your name as well. :)

Disciple said...

Of course I don’t pray as often as I used to, Lovely Lizzie.
But I don’t feel so bad about it now that you are praying for me!

Disciple said...

Thank you.

By the way:
TRACY!

Tracy said...

John! Stop being so mean about me. It isn't nice.

Disciple said...

Good point.

[Bursts into song]
Goodnight sweetheart,
Well it’s time to go.
Doh doh doh doh doh…
Etc. etc.

Sorry T. I'll be "nice" in future.

Little Lizzie said...

I have a question though, John, why do you call me "Your prettiness" and "Lovely" if you haven't even seen pictures of me? You know, I could be horribly ugly.

Disciple said...

These exterior things are accidental and very over rated.

At any rate, I can tell that you're pretty by the conduct of the other females.

Disciple said...

Besides, we don;t have to look at each other, do we?

Little Lizzie said...

::laughs:: that's true, that's true.

Well just in case John is having second thoughts on if you're pretty or not, Beth...She is prolly the prettiest girl in our whole family. And thats out of like 17 girls, I think. yep..Beth won the pretty contest. :)

Little Lizzie said...

Well, thank you, Marcy but, I cannot agree..... Out of all of the Richard girls, I think I could name about 10 that would go way before me.

Anonymous said...

Whatever! I think all the girls are pretty, but you're the prettiest. And I think everyone would agree with me.
Oh, btw, Christopher told me to tell you that you passed up a good deal. hehe. :)

Little Lizzie said...

::giggles while rolls eyes:: Oh my gosh.... Well, I'm sorry. ;-)

Anonymous said...

::laughs:: I agree with him. He's such a sweet guy! And cute!

Disciple said...

Well, pretty is good.
My whole family agress with me when I say I'm the ugliest of the lot!

Little Lizzie said...

::laughs:: yes, but he also just turned 15 I will be 17 in a couple months. I don't think it would work out. Besides, what would our Mr. John do then?

;-)

Anonymous said...

Hehe..But he doesn't act like he's 15!! umm..Maybe Mr. John could get a girlfriend his age...Maybe.

You are NOT going to him "Old Blue." He is not a dog. He especially is not Blake Shelton's dog.

And, who is John? Is he/was he a semi?

Tracy said...

Fine. Then I'll call him Young Blue. So there.

::laughs:: John is just a John from Ireland who happens to enjoy insulting and entertaining us by turns. Is he a seminarian? Not anymore.

Hi John!

Disciple said...

Hi!


Later.

Ps. I wasn't sure if it was me or someone else either.

Unknown said...

Last comment.

Disciple said...

Last what?

Sorry. Didn't hear you right!

Unknown said...

You obviously can't READ either. And seeing as how I WROTE "Last comment" you wouldn't have HEARD it, now would you? NO, you would have READ it.

Someone buy John some glasses.

Last comment.

Disciple said...

My computer has a speech tool because I’m retarded.
So, I did hear it- wrongly.
You’ve hurt my feelings.
Who did you say you looked after?

Unknown said...

Whatever. You're so strange..... and retarded apparently.
