Well, I'm here by myself, and wrapping presents for family, friends, and my daughters, who are now 17 and 20...
And it's kinda quiet, and peaceful, and next thing I know, I've stopped and sat down and I'm looking at the wall in the dining room where the family pictures festoon the place almost from floor to ceiling.
And I'm looking at all the precious images of when they (my daughters) were just a bunch of bitty Knots, and thinking about what a struggle it seemed like then, but how sweet those memories are to have.
Mind you, they are lovely people now, but jeez, I kinda...
relive... those days, and it is so sweet....
I'll spare you the details, but would like to give a (spiritual, for lack of a better word,) hug to all the parents of little 'uns out there...
Let me tell you, things may seem a little funky for some of you, but oh...you are the blessed!
Observe...and remember...and laugh.
