When Bill & I moved out of the house into our motorhome I gave all the "sentimental" stuff to my 2 kids.... and I put little notes with the stuff telling them who it belonged to. I don't think I'm sentimental.... don't keep much of anything... but I heard the US Marine band play Joy to the World this morning and started crying.

I have an item or two that was my mother's, but it was more from her later years, not from my childhood. I learned to never treasure anything so much that my heart would be broken if something happened to it, which usually did. I treasure the people in my life though, and some of them are still around from my childhood.Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.com
