October 11th, 2011 My Gold Mine post below, and people’s responses to it, have reminded me of this blog post I wrote back in 2005, about all the precious “stuff” my mother-in-law saved from Dan’s childhood. So here I am, re-posting, and remembering Dolores … We had a quiet Thanksgiving, home on our own yesterday. Just the nine of us. Just as we had planned. With all the busy-ness of our day to October 11th, 2011 Dan’s dad stopped by this morning and dropped off a couple of bags of old clothing. “It’s stuff your dad used to wear when he was your age!” he told the kids with a wink. My first thought was that these bags would just be more “stuff” for me to throw away. The boys’ first thought was: 70′s GOLD MINE! Oh yes, my man used to October 5th, 2011 Danny had a three-letter word before him this morning. We are practicing sounding out. “H-O-G … H-O-G … H-O-G …” he repeated, over and over again. “Now put the sounds together,” I told him. “HO-G … HO-G … HUG!” he shouted with delight. And then he turned to give me a great big one. I’m not worried. We’ll get there. Right now, I’m just enjoying the process. |
