A treasure trove of the sometimes logical and sometimes mindless ramblings of a woman in the throws of motherhood.

nostalgic Subs...

The kids and I recreated their favorite Firehouse Subs sandwich for lunch today.  We were doing that because it is a place that we really love to eat; but, sadly, Abilene does not have one.  This made us nostalgic for Florida and spawned an interesting conversation. 


I asked them:  "What is the one thing you miss most about Florida?"
Dawson:  "beautiful water when we go to church"
Carter:  "our house...my friends...everything"
Genevieve:  "Grandmommy"


Then I asked them:  "What is the one thing that you like most about Texas?"
Dawson:  "really nice people"
Carter:  "that we almost have everything unpacked"
Genevieve:  "our house"


There are things, places and people who leave an imprint on our lives everywhere we go.  That is what makes up the unique quilt of our existence.  It is interesting to watch the children as their lives are sewn together...noting who and what is making a difference.
