James Cagney Was My Babysitter by Ryan Cassidy, Johnny Ray Miller, Illustrated by Andrea Carvajal

Born into a powerhouse Hollywood family, RYAN CASSIDY, the youngest son of SHIRLEY JONES and JACK CASSIDY, was surrounded by the glitz and glam of Tinseltown from a young age. From his time on The Partridge Family set, to spending time with famous friends of his parents, he was used to being around actors. But having legendary Hollywood actor JAMES CAGNEY babysit him is a memory that still sticks with him even today. Encouraged by the impact the story had on his own daughter, Ryan wanted to share his experience with the world. With a Foreword and Afterword by SHIRLEY JONES, and co-written with noted Partridge Family biographer JOHNNY RAY MILLER, it’s the tender tale of how in one afternoon away from the pressures of a perfectionist father, a shy 7-year-old falls under the spell of a wonderful babysitter who made him feel special. Hours later, he leaves an enthusiastic young man who’s infused with self-confidence and ready for life’s next adventure.

Mother’s Day 2023

It came! Mother’s Day! Weather could not have been more gorgeous. What a beautiful Mother’s Day it was. We got together and had a lazy and not so fancy BBQ, My sister made bbq’d chicken legs and I bbq’d a pork, my mom made potato salad. The best is we had no disagreements, we just basked in the sun and enjoyed the day, along with each others company. We even took a Mother’s Day picture.

This was a first.

All the lovely mothers! from right to left: mother (Nina) – daughter (Erica) – me with the funny sun hat – sister (Marlene) – niece (Dana) . One member of our family was missing. The mother of my grandchildren. She had dinner with her mother. Maybe next year my daughter-in-law will be added to our new Mother’s Day picture.

I cannot help but mention my daughter. She is a Mother-To-Be. So she qualified to be in the all mother’s picture. Her dog, Willow , a soon to be brother…LOL! Happy Mother’s Day? It sure was.

After hearing her teacher read aloud to the class, she knew that she wanted to become a poet, and nothing would stand in her way. At the age of 19, she became America’s first-ever National Youth Poet Laureate. And, after performing her inspiring poem ‘The Hill We Climb’ at the Presidential Inauguration in January 2021, she became an icon across the world.
