Mara's Musings

The little things you remember ...

Got a call a few minutes ago from mom. My father's uncle from southern Indiana passed. Funny the little things in life that you remember. I can picture my tacky little terry cloth shorts and tanktop set and the leather visor bought just for vacation(loved the 70s), I remember the excitement of FINALLY being able to get out of the van and stretch my legs after the long drive, meeting new family members that greeted step kids into the family with easy acceptance, lotsa love, and even more food ... that was also my first meeting with an electric fence. LOL (watch where you are running when you stretch those legs) I will miss Uncle Cecil, his smile and his sweet potatoes. God Bless and keep him until we meet again.
