I know I have mentioned my folks before but they bring me such joy to be around. I sure feel blessed when I get to go and spend time with them. I think my daddy waited until he was 60 to become a hippie! LOL He raised all 7 of us kids and atleast 1/2 dozen grandkids and then I think he went crazy. HAHHA But honestly I think during the years of raising us there was no time for them personally per se and it is at this point in their lives after almost 46 years that they truley are in love.



Another useless fact is that my parents first met in 4th grade. But there was the stigma of my mamma living on the other side of the tracks But eventually things work out and here I am LOL

Now having grown kids of my own I have been known to call my folks and apologize for the things I put them thru as a teenager.

Boy raising your own will sure bring a new understanding to parenthood wont it I recently called my mamma in tears and apologized and she just simply replied as a mamma would, "Honey that is all water under the bridge"! In 20 years when me and my kids sit and talk while their kids are making them tear their hair out I hope I can be as forgiving as my own parents are!!! ~Til next time
