Jarrett Michael Stephen Hartshorn

I haven't been around for a long time but I have enjoyed my short life on earth. I have the best parents anybody could ask for. They have taken good care of me and have given me the chance to be myself. The following pictures are a capsule of my young life. I hope you will enjoy these experiences as much as I have.


I arrived on March 18, 1999

At first, it wasn't much fun.

It didn't take long to enjoy.

Cookies and Cookie Monsters
helped me get my bearings.

After that, everything
was pretty much cool.

It didn't take long to learn how
to manipulate my parents.

All I had to do was play innocent
and I had whatever I wanted.

Dad and Mom took me to see
Papaw when I was 6 months old.

I'm not really pleased with this picture
--but you know parents.

My Dad was always a clown.
Regardless, I din't think this was that funny.

Here I am in the portable prison.
This is totally humiliating and demeaning

Papaw has pretty flowers.
He gave Dad some seeds.

Life was meant to be fun.
I don't intend to be left out.

This is me and Dad. We climbed the sand dunes
of the Saharah Destert.

I bet you can't eat 12 crickets and 9
night crawlers at the same time.

We don't have lots of leaves in
Pooler, but Papaw does.
He kept covering me but I kept coming back.

Nana Lana bougtt me an ice cream cone.
I assume they were to be enjoyed.

Nana asked me to water the flowers.
Believe me, minimum wage really sucks!

This is my Dad in May, 1970.
He thinks he's really hot stuff.

He thinks he knows which end
of the bat I should hold.

After 33 years, here I am!
I'm a whole lot better than my Dad.

I was named after Dale (88) Jarrett.
And I still had to pay for the T-shirt.


This is my '05 school picture.
They made me pose by the mail box.


The baseball recruiters showed up.
They said cards would boost my career.


After graduating college at age
seven, I'm ready to carve my niche...

... but first, I'm going to chill out
and go to Disney World....

... and then, perhaps, start
my own "dot com."
