"V" is veer
« Reply #16230 on: January 10, 2008, 01:25:18 am »
Alma and Ennis did not let the negative attributes of the birth and early days of their first child veer them off the path of family values:

He picked up a few short-lived ranch jobs, then settled in as a wrangler on the old Elwood Hi-Top place north of Lost Cabin in Washakie County. He was still working there in September when Alma Jr., as he called his daughter, was born and their bedroom was full of the smell of old blood and milk and baby shit, and the sounds were of squalling and sucking and Alma's sleepy groans, all reassuring of fecundity and life's continuance to one who worked with livestock.

One round getting finished, and it isn't even the birthday yet.
Am I correct in this?
VERY nice to see us all on line together to celebrate our Fran!

With wickedness in his eye, the ornery L. D. tried to disenfranchise Jack of his parental authority on Thanksgiving Day.

LD and Fayette were so frantically happy about the birth of Bobby, but the day they visited, they managed to addle poor Bobby with the prospect of resembling old LD.

Jack and Ennis were so happy up on Brokeback that on the day separation befell them, they were at a loss for words.

LD and Fayette were frantically happy about the birth of Bobby, but the day they visited, they doted on him, and ignored poor Jack.

Jack had very happy memories of the time up on Brokeback when Ennis's hands had encircled him from behind and held him close.
