Reminiscing

Wow, I haven't posted on here in years. Isn't weird how one day you just stop doing something you had been doing pretty regularly for quite awhile. And you never know when you are doing something for the last time. That is especially true when you look back through your childhood. For years I spent a week at my cousin's farm in the summer. They were such good times. I remember eating Daisies (they were like Bugles) and drinking really strong ice tea out in an old feed wagon in the trees. It was a hot summer day and I was so happy playing with my cousin. Looking back, I don't remember my last overnight stay at the farm. It just ended. There are lots of times like that as I review my life. So many times raising my kids that we would do certain things quite routinely. We used to go to Ihlen swimming in the summer, a lot. When was our last trip? I'm glad I don't know when I do something for the last time, it would ruin it. But it is sad all the same. The years go so swiftly by.
