Last night I came across my Mom in the living room with three big tubs of old photo albums. Soon the whole family was in the room passing around pictures, laughing at silly faces, remembering old times. I even remembered this little blow up alligator floating we played with at my Aunt and Uncle's cottage years and years ago. I also saw how cute I was when I was a youngster. My baby teeth smile, my big bright blue eyes, my uncombed curls that appeared so strawberrry blonde so long ago. I can't help but smile. Then there's Megan with her crazy faces, Erin's always open mouth baby pictures, my insane brother Andrew as a younger kid. And the cousins too even. Its amazing how far we've come in a few years and what's happened to us all, especially me. Sometimes I wish I could be that young girl again riding the pony or blowing out the candles on my birthday cake. But soon I'll have my big Sweet 16 and be well on my way out of childhood. Scary, huh??
Today we have to clean so I should get going. I'm also way behind on my homework so even further work on the weekend. But first of all....LUNCH!
Talk to you all soon! |
