I was maybe 4 years old. You can see those cloth hair curlers. My Mom was always stylin' our hair like Shirley Temple when we had to go anywhere special.
If you look closer, you can see a black tooth on my Dad. When he was in the Marines, he had gotten into a fight with a fellow Marine and the guy smack him with the rifle on his mouth. Well the dentist just put a cap on his tooth. Years later, while he was bitting into an apple, the cap fell off and revealed the blacken tooth. It no longer bothered him, so he never fix it. Since I could remember, that was a part of him, so it never bothered me:)
I miss him.
Now for the video, I have been thinking a lot lately when my first daughter was little how we would sit together and watch Playhouse Disney. Rolie Polie Olie was one of our favorites, next to the Wiggles. Disney no longer shows Rolie Polie Olie. I miss that show. Not my daughter though. She tells me "That's a baby show". I wish they stop growing up:(
