This is a picture of me hold a baby pig that burned our house down:( I was about 6 years old and we had a litter of baby pigs on our back porch because the stupid mother had waded into our pond and got stuck and drown:nod: It is a true story. We brought the babies home and put a blanked around them with a heat lamp to keep them warm. The lamp fell against the blanket and caught fire. While at church our neighbor ran into the church yelling at the tops of his lungs that our house was on fire. The whole church ran outside and true enough it was engulfed in flames. My mother who is an animal lover immediately ran into the burning house to save the pigs. There were no fire departments nearby it took them 20 minutes to get to our house and she didn't want to wait. She ran into the house stepping of burning wood and burning her feet (not seriously) to save the pigs. The pigs had already escaped. By this time the fire department arrived and were only able to save my mother piano:( all my childhood went up in smoke. The next day the local paper came to take picture of the house and thought it would be cute to take this picture of me holding the baby pig with a band aid on his nose where it had gotten burned and ran the story in the paper. (why pic has such poor quality) This is the only picture I have from me at this age. It really Sucks. Grandparents have tons of my older brother and sister but me being the baby they forgot about me:rofl: Now being a parent I can understand why.

I'm sorry your jacket didn't make it.
It was still really funny to open that pic and see you standing there wearing my favorite jacket lol. What are the chances? Well, actually we are about the same age but it was weird seeing it again. I had forgotten it was my favorite hehe. :giggle:
