Today in Jennie Kate Catherine Rusher Hope Murphy Steeley Elledge Cooper's birthday. She is 79 years old. She is my sister and made up this name for herself because she wanted to be an English baroness and knew they had to have queenly names. I, unfortunately, had to memorize it as did Rose Marie and call her the entire name. (They were all members of Daddy's church in Brinkley) Jennie was named for Jennie Catherine Rusher who owned the Rusher Hotel there. All she got out of it was a yellow chest of drawers to my knowledge.I used this picture because it reminded me how often we went to outside church services and always had our backs to the congregation.
I went to Jennie's house this morning with a gift--a framed picture of her grandchildren at the wedding of Bailey's and harvest towel. Alan is coming in for her birthday and she said that Annie was going to visit her boyfriend in Alabama. Jennie is buying Layne a car so she is going somewhere to look for it. I may go to dinner with Allen and Jennie tonight if he gets here in time.
Have to do one more book review tonight. Max Lucada. One thing about it--you can read his books in one sitting. Harder to review them and find what is really important to the reader. You almost feel that he is turning too many out to make them truly relevant to anyone except the buyer.
