Alden
Alden is the youngest of seven siblings in our family. Mama always said he was the tease of the bunch. Everyone knew my mother would scare easily. Alden would be the one to always appear out of no where and scare her. She would jump a mile and let out a shriek to the delight of my brother. As a grown man he still likes
to tease from time to time.
Alden is now the father of three grown daughters and several grandchildren, including one great grand child. He ended up with one of the houses we grew up in and has completely remodeled the place with additions.
He has been running his own mobile home business for years.
Someone once teased Mama for naming her last child Alden. It was because she was "all-done having kids."

I love your mom's sense of humor. And also your bookcase. Tomorrow will be about books on my blog. I also like the way you managed to link to your blog, I couldn't figure it out. Thanks for stopping by.
