Grandma's keepsake
                                               Today I was feeling a little nervous so to help myself feel better I gave my grandma a call and told her what was up.  It just had to do with a conversation that I had with my mom this morning.  See mom is taking this weekend off because she and Mark were invited to a wine tasting in Cleveland along with her cousins Peter and Sally.  So mom asked if it would be OK if I could stay with dad or if Katie could come over since she was thinking of taking the weekend off as well.  I called dad and he said it was more than OK and that he would pick me up at 12 Saturday.  But anyway grandma cheered me up by telling me that she had found a box of old cards and letters that she had kept in an old box and she was reading them today.  
                                               She said that I had sent her a thank you letter for a toy that she had gotten for me  and that letter I had written : I had started a new medicine and it makes my tummy hurt.  
When I heard that I just started laughing.  Why would I put that in a thank you note? LOL and it also made me think of how old I must have been when I sent that or what seizure medicine I was on.  But anyway grandma told me that she saved a card that Ricky made her that had hand drawn hearts and the sun and had a poem that read: Roses are red violets are blue the sun is shining just like you written on it and she said it's so cute to look back at grand children's or (your) things a few years later.  
                                               In fact I have a box filled with my old finger paintings from kindergarten.  They are cute :)  Well anyway just hearing those stories cheered me up.  I suggest keeping a special box with (your) things or you loved ones things.  They are fun to look at.  Well I better go.
