My first Love!

This pretty much says it...
My Papi (grandfather) from Puerto Rico. Forgive the panty shot girls!! My mother sent me these pictures in honor of the upcoming Valentine's holiday. We were talking about love. She asked me if I remembered my first love and of course I said "Yes ma'am, it was Donny Osmond!" she giggled and said "No! It was your Papi!" She reminded me I was crazy about my grandfather and he was crazy about me. I went everywhere with him and he spoiled me rotten.

He was truly my first love! He was also my first heart break...passing away when I was only 6 years old...

Oh Lilly! What a precious photo of you and your "Papi"! I don't have a single one of my Pepe (French) and me together. You must frame this one and keep it out where you can enjoy it!!! As far as shoes, I love love them but can't find many to fit my size 12 foot plus I used to be 5'10" and high heels were always just a dream! I've shrunk but can not longer walk like a lady in them!!!(more like an elephant on stilts now!lol) Have a happy weekend dear - Jeannette (thanks for the birthday wish and song!)

Oh Lilly! These photos are so sweet and just priceless. How wonderful to know you were adored by your grandfather and I'll bet he knew how much you adored him.
