I have a little brother, who is not so little anymore. Jake has grown up and is much taller than me now. He is in the Marines and is gone again for another training. I visited home this weekend and we watched the movie "Fox and the Hound". The movie sparked some memories of Jake.
Jake and Kyle watched "Fox and the Hound" a lot. There is a small clip before the movie starts that the boys really liked. It was about a lion that got dropped off by the stork to a lamb. So, the mama lamb raised the lion and the lion never fit in. The lion finally earned his respect from the lambs when he saved them from a wolf. The clip is called “Lambert the Sheepish Lion”. And I still have the song stuck in my head. The boys loved that clip.
Whenever Jake would watch a movie or the TV he would often be sitting on his tricycle. So picture a short boy with chunky legs and a round face with blonde, bull-cut hair and big eyes sitting on his tricycle watching the TV.
I can’t explain any more of the little Jake memories because if he ever reads this I will be toast.
