Dear Rita Mae
Brown,
The first movie
I can recall seeing in a theater was Mary Poppins with Julie Andrews.
The kids were
entrusted to get there and back on our own, even though it would be dark by the
movie’s end. The walk to the theater seemed quite long to me and I recall us
walking along a train track at some point. My fuzzy memory may be making that part up.
One thing I am
certain of, was that when my legs tired, my older brother hoisted me up on his
shoulders and carried me, the highlight for me.
As many younger siblings do, I called him Bubba, because brother was
too difficult to pronounce.
He called me
Missy, short for Mosquito, because I bugged him. Yet he still carried me!
Today is his
birthday.
Happy Birthday
Bubba,
Loraine
