we went to Sears. by the time my youngest came along I was single and poor as dirt and that picture is so cherished because it's one of very very few that i have with all 4 of my babies. I remember when we left coming back to the car I told them all I will cherish this forever, and I do. they were 16, 12, 8 and practically brand new.

You and Liz built a lovely and successful family. Hat's off! I know she should still be there but her love is and always will be. it's great how you can summon up your very thoughts of the moment and make a reader be there too.
