Birthday Wishes from Mom and Dad

October 28, 2009
Fort Collins, CO

No birthday ride today... too cold... sooooooooooo...

I'm sharing a great Daughter-Mine birthday letter written by my Mom... Thanks for this look through your eyes... because when all is said and done - the reflection of a person - in the eyes of those who love them and whom they love in return - is really all that matters.



Our Daughter is 54 years old today

Happy Birthday Vickie Lynn
From: Mom and Dad

Once upon a time, in a land in North Central Texas,
there was an Air Force base by the name of Sheppard AFB
located nearby a city of Wichita Falls, Texas.
In this city lived a very handsome Air Force guy
by the name of Ted
and his young, pretty, and shy wife
by the name of Gertrude ”Inez”.
On October 28th, 1955,
this pretty, young wife gave birth
to a beautiful, dark-haired,
browned-eyed baby girl
who was named Vickie Lynn.
Her parents, very young at that time,
fell in love with this beautuful baby girl
wrapped in soft pink blankets.
Now this little girl has grown into
a mature, very talented, patriotic,
wife, mother, grandmother, daughter
and friend.
She can do anything she sets her mind to.
She met and fell in love with her husband, Tim.
Tim takes such good care of Vickie.
Her Dad and I could not ask for a better
partner for life for Vickie than Tim.
They ride Harleys together, shop together,
decorate together.
Where you find one you will find the other.
Vickie, you are our daughter
and we love you so very much.
You are such a very important part of our lives.
How you recognize your Dad
in all of his endeavors is remarkable.
He loves everything you do and say about him.
He knows you take a lot of that from him.
Thank you our daughter for all you do
to honor your Dad.
My daughter,
you will always be my soft baby girl,
even though you never liked
pink and lace and frills.
I accept that, and step aside for you
to be your own person.
I adore you and I love you.
You are my best friend, my daughter,
my soft place to fall when I need you.
You have always been there for us
and for that we are very grateful.
God bless you on your special day.
We miss you and wish you were here
To celebrate your special day,
but the miles are quite a few between us.
So have a fun-filled, happy, loving,
and special day and remember you are
our little girl named Vickie Lynn
born to us on
October 28th,1955
And, we would not change anything about you.
We love you just as you are.
Love you forever,
Your Mom (Inez) and your Dad (Ted)

The Folks and Me


Being a good daughter is only possible because I have such great parents.

Just for the record... only my Mom is allowed to talk about me like this... so, Biker Dudes beware your tongue... LOL!
