I remember not having a care in the world. I have often longed to go back there, with no responsibilities, etc. I remember not wanting to grow up. The dirt and the huts were my life. Every child should have those memories in my opinion. I do think that is where we find ourselves. I think we can learn a lot about who we are from our childhood. I think we should all set aside time to have those free, no responsibility days of playing in the dirt with no thought of time. I can't say our whole lives should be that way, but I think we all need those days to refresh ourselves and remember who we are and to remind us to slow down and to refocus on what's really important.

My sister ( The same one) who liked all things french would tell us you could eat Frog's legs and I didn't believe her. Imagine my surprise when I found out she was telling the truth! I was So grossed out! Hi Enya so good to see you! Yeah, the skinned knees. To be honest, I still have them. I haven't changed all that much. I takes lots of showers now, but I still get dirt under my fingernails during gardening season. Hi Barbara,

Hi Enya
so good to see you! Yeah, the skinned knees. To be honest, I still have them. I haven’t changed all that much. I takes lots of showers now, but I still get dirt under my fingernails during gardening season.
