  “YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE” by Debbie Boone

  My Mom and Toby say…

  Maybe you’re getting ready to roast chestnuts on an open fire. Do people really eat those things?

  4 Tobys - not promoting smoking, but keeping in line with the famous poem “and his head, the smoke encircled it like a wreath” - way to go, pipe smoking Santa, you should meet Miley.

  This is how daughter Dustin (Tanner’s youngest sister) got her name: Doctor said it was a boy, so when a girl popped out I had just read People Magazine a few days before and Debbie Boone had just given birth to twin girls, Gabrielle and Dustin, so it came to be. Living in a very multi-cultural neighborhood of Arlington, VA at the time, my friends from India came bearing great gifts with cards made out to “Dustin Hoffman”. This is a true story, never will forget that day. Guess they didn’t know our last name or had just seen “Tootsie”.

  And I’d like to add…

  Imagine my disappointment when after nine months of being told that I was going to have a brother my folks walked in with a girl. Sure, they gave her a boy’s name, but still, not really the same. I couldn’t hit a girl.
