I think The Husband still has that shirt. I, on the other hand, have no clue what that get-up is that I am wearing. Oh, and is anyone surprised that I am talking... with both my mouth and my hands?! |

Thanks for the Memories
One of my North Carolina cousins recently posted some old family pictures on Facebook. If you look at me then and now, you will know just how old some of these pictures are. We are talking 29 years here. So that puts me under 30. Wow, I cannot even remember that far back. The hair cuts are horrendous as are the clothes, but who cares. I look at the pictures, and I am there. There are no mosquitoes or flies and the heat and humidity are not unbearable. That's what memory does for you. It makes everything look hazy and glorious. I probably didn't realize at the time just how glorious it was. But I do now. I hope that counts for something in God's economy.

KW---I just love the way you think....and write....and love....and see things. Is it not just bizarre, and somewhat agonizing....to watch our children go through the things we went through...that almost broke us, and in the end....hardened and molded and strengthened and sensitized us to all that is good and evil? Whew...it was hard enough to live through it all ourselves, and now we have to watch the next generation struggle with many of the same things. Anyway, thanks for sharing. Andrea B.
ReplyDeleteOh to live it all again...I can still smell the bay and the sweet breezes after the rain. Can't you just see the rain coming across the bay and all of us running up the hill "to beat it"! I love that our parents were so generous to keep all of us so close as cousins, sisters, and best of all friends. What a heritage we possess! LOVE you and the precious memories we share.
