Remembered Days Do you remember the days of your childhood? When you would grab a friend and play in the rain. Then ride your bike through water puddles having mud splashed all down your back. Climb tree’s just to see if you could make it to the top. Roller skating on sidewalks, falling skinning knees and elbows. I do. Do you remember coming home from school? Walking through the door at three, to the aroma of fresh baked bread or pan rolls just coming out of the oven. The warmth smelling so sweet, covering the bread in creamy butter. Sitting down with your mom and eating a whole box of chocolates just because it was fun. I do. Do you remember the first time you faced death? You were a small child; your loving aunt had died. The long, long trip so far way. Everyone crying, you touching her and thinking she is so cold, she needs a warm soft blanket. I do. Do you remember your first love? You were in the fifth grade.A guard was he. So handsome and smart. You remember his name after all these years. You wonder does he remember you? I do. Do you remember the fun, laughter, and sorrow of your life? Do you remember to say, “I love You,” to your loved ones? Do you remember that our Lord loves you in good times and in bad? Do remember to say, “Thank You,” to be alive for one more day? I do. Love Bon-Bon |

Are we sisters ? ... well, I think maybe~ This is a great flip through some nostalgic moments of recall~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |

I hope the grazes on your knees have healed I do remember my first love and the factory wall words were about that. I think it took me a lot of years to really understand a woman and that was in spite of my determination, claims and desire not to Dave |
