The Life of Corey L. Salyer
When my mother first laid her eyes upon me, she began thinking about how she could deal with three boys. My brothers, later to be named Ty-Ty and Bam-Bam, were staying with my Grandma and Grandpa and could not wait to see me. Tyler, who was then five years of age and could not remember what it was like having a new born brother around, thought of me as a new toy he could play with and share his love of “McGuiver” tricks and booby traps. He was then disappointed when he found out that newborn babies stink and sleep for almost the entirety of the day. “Tweedle-dum” on the other hand did not know what to think of me being only two years old.

I was only in my first two weeks of life but it was a devastating blow to the family, as the beloved Pompoo went away to doggy heaven. I could care less though as long as I was sitting in my swing with my thumb in my mouth and my momma beside me. Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum always interrupted my good thumb suckings because they always wanted to kiss me. As soon as I would get comfortable in my swing, my mom would have to go and clean or answer the phone or something, and then chubs and Tyler would be right in my face. I would scream for my mom because I knew that she would be able to pry those two off me.
