The Baby Book mom made for me talked about it--
I had received it as a gift on my second Christmas
and I remembered seeing it too off and on over the years...
but it wasn't at our home, so where was it?
Last weekend I made a trip to my parents' home to help my sibling.
As we sorted stuff in our parents' garage--
we found lots of things, but most importantly we found it!!
A little worse for the wear (just like me),
A little worse for the wear (just like me),
but still very capable of bringing a BIG smile
to this grown up girl with a child's heart-
who long ago left her parents' home to become a wife,
who long ago left her parents' home to become a wife,
then a mother, and finally a grandmother.
And meanwhile, my beloved rocker stayed behind all those years waiting patiently,
for just the right time to become a gift to that child (me) again...
Thanks mom!

Do you have something from your childhood that makes you smile?

Photos: me at about age 3 sitting on the rocker
yea! we find the rocker tucked away in the garage
the rocker comes home from the trip--soon to have a bit of restorative surgery to treat its 'fracture' (LOL) and a bit of a spa treatment too to make it as good as new :)
Did I say it is a musical rocker?

Thanks so much for taking time to leave a comment! I LOVE hearing from visitors and your comments most always leave a BIG smile on my face and sometimes a little giggle too! I do moderate comments to ensure a family friendly blog and also to catch any spam so your comment won't post immediately unless I am online at that time. However, I do check for comments regularly. If you don't see your comment post within a day or two, it's most often due to it being a Sunday (when I limit my Internet use) or, at times, a computer issue. Again thanks and have a GREAT day:)
