Man Where Does The Time Go

It was just yesterday, February 28, 1991. It was 6:15 am, and my wife told me that it was time to go to the hospital. She had called her mom, to come sit with Holly. So off we went. 9:00am, and there he was.

Through the years he has changed and grown, but forever he will be our "little boyo"

Today he turns 18. Man, where did the time go?

Happy Birthday Ryan

Stories, Legends, and Myths

When something happens within the family, or better yet at a family gathering it becomes a family "Story". It will be told over and over and over again. The "Story" will remain exactly as it happened when it is told among that generation.

As we tell that "Story" over and over and over and over again for more than ten years it becomes a family "Legend". It becomes a "Legend" as it has now been passed on to a new generation of the family to live and enjoy. The "Legends" sometimes get embellished to make them more appealing. The new generation will put their own angle on telling the Legend, but they will keep the "Legend" alive.

Upon the unfortunate demise of any family member involved with the incident or after 20 years, I believe the story then becomes "Mythical". This "Mythical" event will have more embellishments added in to it as most of the people who have heard about this event know it only second hand, and weren't there when it was just a "Story".
