Who the Hell is Rolex??

My dear friends, To some of you this may sound insane, to some it may sound sweet, but to me it is very serious. When I met my companion in 1983 and he had another child on the way I remember how envious I was to have the chance to expeierence the joy of being a father or a mother in my case..lol. I have participated in raising his 3 children now for 14 years and watching them grow and also sometimes driving me crazy. But I love them as if they were my brothers and sisters. I never got into the stepmother thing....So I decided before I turned 30 I wanted to adopt. At first I thought of a child, but then with my crazy ways and attitude I went a step further.

Rolex Je'sus Ciccone Collins Porte is his name and he is a brown capped capuchin monkey. He entered my life on AUGUST 1ST 1996 and was born on July 17th, 1996. So you see he was just 2 weeks old when i got him. I had no idea what i was getting into. I have such respect for those who do have kids. I was up just as if he was a child every 3 hours with feedings, changings, and illnesses. I had taken a much needed rest from august to january from the grinds of the road and dedicated my life to him. I learned pateince and surrender very quickly.

He has brought so much joy to my life as well as my whole extended family. He is one of us. I have a great respect for him and the primates for if it was not for them i would not be here. You see as we all know they use these primates for disease research one of them being AIDS. It is my way of taking some of the guilt off of the endless torture and murders that these primates have endured. I felt by adopting just one would be my way of saying thankyou for saving my life for I have saved yours.

To any of those of you who know me personally I am very spirtual and I believe in helping all creatures of GOD. I feel very blessed to have been able to get this chance to mohter this wonderful, loving, loyal animal who can bring a huge smile to my face with his endearing eyes when i walk into a room after having the worse day of my life or being out of town and coming home and he runs across the room in his mickey mouse t shirt screaming for me and grabs me and wont let go. This to me is what life is about in all aspects of the word.......LOVE!!!!!!!!!
