Elizabeth and I
My great nephew Daniel Everett Brady was born last night. It’s hard to keep my focus and write about the Old West with such news. I have such a wonderful time with my great niece Elizabeth when I return to Missouri, I look forward to having just as much fun with Daniel. Elizabeth likes to dance. My last visit home she and I danced for hours to the Taylor Swift song Mean. Elizabeth is mute but exceptional at signing. She’s a brilliant child and beautiful. Daniel Everett was named after my brothers Scott Daniel and Rick Everett. I think my niece Melissa is quite magnanimous for making this kind gesture. I’m so proud of her. The memory of my brother Rick will live on in little Daniel. Every time we say his full name we’ll be reminded of his Uncle. Maybe I can persuade Daniel to dance with Elizabeth and I – to throw his little hands high in the air and celebrate life and the memory of all those that came before us.
