Myrtle's Great Aunt with Junior & Juniorette

Since Myrtle is getting a little old, She is more interested in Her Opossum Heritage.
This is Myrtle's Great Aunt Wilhemina, She is holding Junior & Juniorette Some distant cousins of Myrtle & Bucky & Speedy. This photo was taken way back in the 1950's. Myrtle kinda resembles Aunt Wilhemina & even more to Junior & Juniorette. Now Myrtle's Aunt Wilhemina was a true Virginia Hillbilly, She named Her Opossums Junior & Juniorette, There was another named Junior Junior, but he got ran over by the milk truck one early frosty winter morning.
But at first Aunt Wilhemina would go outside and call Her opossums, She'd Yell " Junior Junior, Junior, Juniorette, Yall come on up on the porch and get yer slop !!"" They'd mosey on up on the porch and eat up all the left-overs that Uncle Amos diden't eat fer Supper.
Now I could always tell who was Juniorette, cause She was a Girl, But I Could never tell which one was Junior Junior or Junior. But Auntie Wilhemina could always tell each one apart, just by glancing at them. I guess she had lots of experience with stuff like that since She had 3 boys of Her own, and their names were Ben, Benjamin & Benjie. I guess its a Mother thing you know.
Well Myrtles got to take Her fiber Pills & We have to poly-grip Her dentures for the old lady's club tommorow. so I guess we will be turning in early.
Until next time
Myrtle's Father
