“Mom, so-and-so was wondering about the first time you and dad kissed?” This question was asked amongst comments of “No, I didn’t!” and “It was your idea!” We all laughed {and there might have been a few ‘eeewwww’s} as I recounted that fateful day so long ago. It dawned on me we’d never told that […]

When you lose sight….LOOK
The door slides open after she knocks. Tentatively she pokes her head in, “I’m supposed to take lunch to my dad but I’m not sure of where to go.” This niece of mine – she’s tall {taller than me anyway}, slender, with dancer’s legs, best friends to my daughter. Her father has his own farm […]
