Gud mornin fwends! Deddee say I been gud boyee and so he lett me do one wemembawamble, an he woulda lett lil merle do one butt he kinda dumb and not kno how to write. Deddee say my writing is betterer now than when I was real babee. I miss see'n y'aw and teling about how things ar here in garfield. i ben gud to lil merle and gott use to he dumness.
He can't hep being dumb, an deddee say to nott tease him. So i try to not tease himm so much, butt itt not easey to not tease him. But deddee say Jesus say nott to tease lil merle 'cause he so dum. if deddee and Jesus both say not tease merle, i have to not to sometimes. But deddee say Jesus forgive if i do, so i still do, and then pway.
It okay to do that, deddee show me in Dooteronimee i think, or mite have been in Book of Mr. John, and it say puppee babees can git forgived. I wuz thinking the other day bout before deddee get merle, and itt juss me and deddee, an I like it. Then one day, i see a dog in our house. I hollers, "deddee!!" "Get da broom, theys a dog in the house!" Deddee say, "he our dog."
I say, "deddee, we not need a dogg." He say, "but dog need us!!" Then i nott like him. Now, i not like him, not as much. He dumb, and he stinky, but he funny, and we laff sometimes at stuff. He nott nebber had no raising, he grow up on ghetto streets in Statesburger i think deddee say itt wuz. He mommy nebber take him to church.
He not even see telebision until we got him to be our dogg. i have to tell himm ebberthing, he not know nuffin, almost, just about. Thatt nuff about merle. I nott even try to trade him to some nice ladee for shicken anymore. We stuck widd him. Deddee stopp going to work, and he here all of time now. He been sicks some, but gets better soemtimes too.
He play big ball and lil ball bunch more than before, i am gud to himm and let him play ball with me. It gud for him. he ole an fatt, an slow, but we wove him anyways. deddee make guddest shicken in the world, makes some of itt inside a can, in not know how he do itt. He makes whole shicken and uses a special wecipe and he make it in a bagg thing.
It say walmart or piggy wiggy and it so gud, and hot, deddee hafta blow on it to make it cool so we can hav it. I tole dedde his shicken so good and he say itt "wotissiwewee" kind of shicken. dedde knows a lott. a sweet ladee on gwoup send me and merle blinkie light collars, and tweets, foods and all kinda uv things. we love sweet ladees.
i juss about stop chasing catts, but merle he chase catts way more than babee ebber did. deddee holler at him, but he dumb, merle i mean, merle too dumb to listen. sumtimes when deddee tired of heering me and merle bark at things here, he takes us across the wode to the ole house they are wurking on, and letts us bark at the man over there.
he lil feller an he scared of us boyz, and dat make it funn to bark at him. Then deddee will act like he say uss not to bark at man, and he say to lil man, we sorry, me and merle and deddee laff later. dedde nice mann but he like to laff. i hope the lil man across rode not gett madd at deddee. oh, deddee got harecut yesterday, he look funny. in laff and ask deddee if man whu cut his hair same one who cut merle's hair.
I waff and waff. i been eating acorns, and deddee say nott too many, but they gud, and i eat them a lott. We go doodie in cotton patch, and deddee say, "boyz, y'all doodieing in high cotton," and he laff like it real funny. Butt all cotton high to me and melre. deddee said same thang last year when we doodie in low cotton. he say we doodie in high cotton.
I know i talk too much about deddee and merle, but we only ones what live right here. some folks we luv come see us sometimes, but most tiems it juss us. if lil merle could write he could prolly make up stuff to write because he tell stories sometimes, and gonna git a "storee bump" on he tongue. Dedde talk all the time about he love us, and he love yaw, and how Jesus gud to him and bwess him so so much.
I sorry i can't write funny like deddee, but i tell yu a funny thing happen to deddee at garfield store today. He wuz goin to Swainsburger, where he use'a live, to get haircut. Man name Tim Hood cut he hare for forty-five yeers. At store before hee goes, he got dwink and snack, he sware he not gott a cheeseburger dis time and he breath not smell like cheeseburger like time we call 911 when he eats us boyz cheeseburger.
he say he give nice ladee miz Peggy a twenty dollar bill for drink and snack, and he was oing to give her five dollar bill and oneses, but switched to twenty dollar bill instead. She give deddee hims change, and when he open he billfold thing, he holler, "i had twenty dollars bill in heer, and it is gone." Deddee look all around for it. Miz peggy, and Mr. Donnie and two udder men laff and say, "YOU JUST SPENT IT."
They git gud laff on pore ole deddee. But thrn he say to miz Peggy, "if you won't rag me about this, I will shut up about you trying to scan that cheeseburger the other day." He say, she say it gud deal and they make agree on it. He say when they get knew cash register thing while back, it have scanner thing to scan stuff dat hav the bar code thingies on dem.
She scanned he drink, crackers and BC powder thing, and den she pickup he cheeseburger she just have cookeded, wrappedin glad wrap and wrote with sharpie pen thing, CB for cheeseburger, so deddee say. And she scan it. She looked at dedde hoping he miss seein dat, but u know deddee, he see it and laff and laff. She laff a lil but she wanna brain deddee with a pot or pan, but she not do it.
People gud about not braning deddee in the head for stuff like dat, that he find funnee. i go too long but tell u one more thin, when we wake up deddee to go out and make peepees, he always say, "juss a minute, let me go bafroom and then i will take yaw outside." me and merle laff so hard ebbertime he say that, and he not git what funnee about it.
It like his story of his deddee telling about going to mule sale in a place called Augusta long time ago, and they go to Greek restaurant to get Irish stew. he deddee nott unnerstand why deddee laff about dat. dedde come in just now, and say i gone an wote way too much, but i say i not get too write much. he say okay, time to tell them we love them and who we are. We are:
..... we boyz three, me, lil merle, & deddee
..... NUMBERS 6: 24-26 KJV






So good to hear from you, Babbee. Makes my heart full. ❤️
