be booming and he d just sit back and muse, “Hmm ... a little trouble . . . we’ll work it out.” He’s such a pro. He’s been trained to his business since he was seven. His dad used to pick him up after school, take him to the factory, and he’d work there at small chores until they went home to dinner. Harry did his homework at night, later he took summer school courses. He got out of high school at fourteen and law school at twenty-one. He’s a graduate lawyer, and his knowledge of law is invaluable, not only to him but to me. Who do you think reads my contracts? He’s taught me a little about law. He’s taught me to play cards. He’s influenced my life in a million ways. I used to do a fair amount of cooking, now I’m interviewing for a full-time cook because Harry loves good cooking and so do I, and we want uncluttered time together. We love all the small things that go to make up a life — a picnic lunch or a night at the theater, dinner at Pavilion or a hamburger at a drive-in on our way to a movie, buying a new painting or hearing a child’s prayers. Little presents ... on Valentine’s Day he came home with a gift for each of us. A bride doll for Carrie, who’s been hearing a lot about bride and groom lately at our house. That’s how we knew she had a virus. Carrie, who usually raises the roof if you give her a jelly bean, just took the doll quietly in her arms and laid down on the couch with the afghan! “She must be sick,” Harry said. “Have you taken her temperature?” “Oh, she’s all right, she’s just tired,” I said. But Harry said take her temperature, so I took it and it was 103. We called the doctor. We were up with her most of that night. But we were together, and the fever was slowly going down. And being all together in the nursery — a family — was wonderful. It’s more than fabulous. It’s what I’d call a dream life. — Debbie Reynolds as told to Jane Ardmore all new • all exclusive packed with pictures and news of TV’s greatest— from Adams to Zimbalist See Debbie in Paramount’s “Pleasure of His Company.” Watch for her in “Pepe” for Columbia and “Champagne Complex” for 20th Century-Fox.
