Things from when I was young…
This one’s for Mommer and Kimbob.
I remember…
eating at the Chinese restaurant every Tuesday after dance lessons w/ my mom and sister...and ordering the same thing every single week…beef with mixed vegetables

the password someone had to give to pick us up from school (so we would know our parents sent them and we weren't being kidnapped): yummy yogurt
being mean to my sister and my mom saying, "One day you'll feel bad about that...." and I do.

making my sister eat dog food b/c I liked the way the dogs crunched it in their teeth and I wanted to see is she could too.

when my dad made me vacuum the floor (with the huge vacuum that was connected with the handheld part to the huge body the size of a small car) and I was mad so I spit my gum in the carpet and tried to vacuum it up... I got a spanking for that one...

the first time i ever saw my dad cry...when our miniature pincher was hit by a car and he had to dig a hole and bury him (RIPSambo).

my dad squishing lighting bugs on my shirt and making it glow....

making my sister eat lighting bugs and making her teeth glow...

the first time i ever said a curse word…I was in 5th grade on the playground with a girl named Angel...

getting my mouth washed out w/ soap by my mom for calling my sister a "buttlicker"...

the look on my mom’s face first time i accidentally dropped the "f" bomb in front of her when i was riding w/ her in the car and it slipped out...

the first and only time i ever heard my mom sing, when she was helping me practice my solo of "Just As I Am" for church...

my mom having dinner ready every night.

trying to stay awake on Christmas Eve so I could try and see Santa Claus...

believing my mom when she said Santa Claus parked his sleigh and reindeer on the roof of the mall while he was inside listening to children tell him what they (we) wanted for Christmas...
