Getting To Know Us

Tad – On Your Birthday
By Dean Beaty 10/16/09
Proverbs 17:17 “A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”
Proverbs 18:24 “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there
is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.” (KJV)


Although some things did not work out and ended in a fuss.
Our feelings have not changed at all, you're still a friend to us.
Although there's many miles between Tulsa and Greenville,
Whenever you can visit us our hearts will feel a thrill.

We also miss young Tyler. You both are in our prayers.
This poem for your birthday is sent to show our cares.
I miss our dining out and they've closed the Pizza Inn.
I think we kept them in the black and now it's Mexican.

I'm sure that Tyler told you that we've a puppy too.
Though sometimes I regret it for our place is like a zoo.
He goes wherever we go and at church he's in the car.
If the weather is too warm, the windows are ajar.

Back to you and birthdays, what you want I hope you got.
As for us we miss you and still love you a lot.
Keep on pushing forward though the battle may seem long.
Trust the Lord to help you. He alone can make you strong.

The Oldest Child
By Rev. Dean Beaty 10/31/09
Psalm 127:3-5 “Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD:
and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand
of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that
hath his quiver full of them:” (KJV)

There is something very special about your first born child.
She's always sweet and pleasant, her temperament is mild.
She does not have to share or put her things away.
For mommy is not busy and will help at end of day.

Her father is a marshmallow, easy to wrap around.
Just like a twisted pretzel till his happy hunting ground.
She is quite the princess the ruler of the roost.
Oh mother what is next, what's this we have produced?

Whether in a diaper or a beautiful ballgown.
All hearts go pitter-patter and the boys have a melt down.
At least 'twas true with us, our life was full of song.
All was peace and harmony till the second came along.

Now she will not share. She hadn't had to up till now.
Everything belonged to her like a touchy mother sow.
Then to complicate things more, number three was on it's way.
Mom had no more spare time when it came to end of day.

But now they're all grown up and it's back to mom and me.
Our first born is a woman for Michelle turned forty-three.
She has children of her own and her time is never free.
For her mother and her dad she's now full of sympathy.

Jim's Birthday 2009
By your father-in-law 11/1/09

Happy birthday son-in-law Jim.
Your quiver is almost to the brim.
Two at a time like bowling pins.
You doubled your score by having twins.

Your also good with most high tech.
Like a carpenter you built your deck.
Then too you're finishing up with school.
That shows that you're nobodies fool.

When computer problems are unknown,
I simply call you on the phone.
With lots of decorating gear,
You might just win “lawn of the year.”

Which project will you tackle next?
I hear they need a new bible text.
You've done it all without a crew.
They say Clark Kent was mild mannered too.
