Many of us haven't had very idyllic childhoods. I have forgotten almost everything about my childhood except for some things I kind of wish I could forget. Still, I guess even troubled childhoods have their moments. I have trouble nurturing my inner child, but looking at these pictures I kind of think maybe she deserves a little love. Maybe I wasn't the carefree baby I look like in these photos - but maybe I'm not the distorted mess that memory has made of me either. Food for thought, I guess...
Remembering childhood days in the park
I wish sometimes
To have those moments back
Of trust
And smiling eyes
And no conscience.
- Katherine E. Rabenau
Some things I'm grateful for today:
- Margaret who helps me 2x/month
- sunshine
- cool night air
- my house
- teeth
- mouth wash
- music
- memories (some of them)
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
And may your memories be sweet.
And may your memories be sweet.

Oh for those carefree days, eh? I've lost my baby pics I think but from what I remember, I was a rather solemn, unprepossessing child. 'and no conscience' - Oh, not to need one!
Sorry I don't get to your reminders every day. Must try harder :-)
What an extraordinary sweet and beautiful child you carry within you.
Please treat her well, she so deserves that.
I can see from your profile picture next to the first picture, you still have the same beauty. Not many are so like their own baby pictures. Moving and great.
