Sunshine and Memories

This beautiful weather, in spite of how I feel, reminds me of memories of being a little girl, living on wissahickon avenue with my mama & playing in the backyard. I can almost remember her laugh when I'd ask if I could go "swim" in the 'hose pipe'. It seemed like she always said yes to playing outside, & Popsicles. I remember her being so much fun & even going down the slide in my care-bears pool over & over again. That taught me to have fun with my boys. Those are memories that warm my heart when I look back & overshadow everything else. Thank you mama for being that mama to me and teaching me to live life every day and to live it in happiness even it means going against the grain.
