She had told me a lot about Charlie and he sounded like the kind of person Id enjoy. I found him to be very attractive, well read, with a good sense of humor. But one tnmg about him bothered me. He consumed more alcohol than any person I had ever gone out with in my life. I believe God sent Billy to us to open our eyes to the love him very much. When I first started to have boyfriends they would come over in the tvening, just to talk. Billy would suddenly appear out of nowhere without a stitch of clothes on. The boys were noticeably embarrassed but I would explain that Billy had the mind of a very young child and he didnt know that in our society people were to wear clothes expected when guests were present. Not one boy resented Billy or became embarrassed so that he didn't come back to the house. r V .

To children, two cookies are two cookies, the size doesnt really matter. If a package of meat has a price on it that begins with $1 I expect the package to last us one meal.
