Michael Lawrence Taylor II was born here in Bakersfield. It was a scary time because I developed toxemia so they put me in the hospital. Two days later Mikey was born. Everything went well and he was a healthy 8lbs 8 oz.
He has always been quiet from the beginning. After all he had two older sisters and one older brother to do all the talking.
Mikey ( as we have always called him) was a thumb sucker who folded his ears while he sucked. It was pretty cool to all the kids. He didn't speak until he was almost three but, when he did finally talk it was fast and in full sentences. If any of you know Mikey you know he talks fast, eats fast, and plays and works hard!
His dad thanks Heavenly father everynight for the blessing of being able to work with him everyday. They are the best of friends and show great love for one another.
He loves sports, fishing,hunting,scuba diving,eating and traveling. He is always going somewhere exciting and always learning something new.
Our whole family and extended family have loved and enjoyed Mikey for all 29 years. I think it would be almost impossible to find another brother, son,or friend more loving, thoughtful, or kind then he. I cannot believe that my Father in Heaven picked us for such a priceless gift of being his parents.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKEY! We love you
