Heather: Did you hear that Mark and Tonya are having a son?
Audrey: That is good as he has girls and now a boy to carry on the family name.
Audrey: That is good as he has girls and now a boy to carry on the family name.
Audrey: All my kids were so beautiful. Same difference. I thought the world of you kids. Having seven kids, it was such a blessing to have a baby in your arms. They say the terrible two, but I loved the terrible twos.
You were all darling. When Crystal was in the crib, she said “Mother, come get these wet guys (wet diapers). Doug was a quiet boy and Heather was quiet, too. Spen was full of mischief. Crystal was full of mischief. Vaughn, he was the last baby.
We went over to Aunt Jeannie’s everyday in the afternoon and chairs were all outside. Aunt Jeannie loved to watch the kids. She had our toys over there. When Aunt Di came, she put our toys on the refrigerator. Di did not want kids there and the lady upstairs didn’t want kids. Dick, he would always yell at them. He said he wanted to throw her in the river to get rid of her.
Oh, I loved the grandchildren. Belinda was the first one. Little Hannah is doing her thing and so is Emma. Meagan has this beautiful thick head of hair. Mathew wants to be a chef. Jessica is full of life and Mark’s children are all so beautiful.
Audrey: Meagan, she is a very pretty little girl and she is a good little girl. Mathew, he’s jolly. There is always a big smile on his face. Brian, he is working all the time. He is very busy, he is in college. Kelsey and Kaitlyn are so darling and Kenya is such a helpful big sister. They are the cutest kids. Mark will be so happy to get a boy now that he has his girls. Jessica, she a jolly little girl, always dancing around and always full of life. She is very cute also. Ian. I’m so happy they have a boy as they already have their girls. Emma, she and Hannah are darling. Hannah is getting older now. I haven’t seen Stephanie’s baby yet. She will get here sooner or later. She will bring him to see me.
Audrey: They were very good looking, cute kids. They had dark hair, whereas Vaughn’s hair was light as a child. Michelle and Mark’s great grandfather (maternal side) was English. I think his name was Richardson, but I am not sure. I thought April was cute, and Stephanie was a nice looking girl. My mother had blue eyes so she wanted blue eyed babies. Grandpa and the Spencers had green eyes. My eyes are green and Ed and Edith’s eyes were not blue. (They were) either green or brown. I can’t seem to remember. Spencer was the first blue eyed baby born. My mother was so happy that my babies (five of the seven children) had blue eyes.
