Mom used to lay a blanket on the living room floor with an air popcorn popper on it. She would take the top off and let it pop everywhere. I remember lying on the floor trying to catch it in my mouth.
Mom made a teepee once and put it up in the living room. It seemed like it was in there for an entire summer but it was probably only up for a day or 2.
When Nick was very small, we left the house to go somewhere for a bit. I think we were with Loretta and her kids. I remember after a while of being gone someone realized we forgot Nick. I remember an urgency to get home. He was sleeping, unharmed in his crib.
I was the first to go to school. I remember my Mom, Adam, and Nick walking me to school…Nick was carried I am sure since he was only a year old. Adam cried all day because he missed me.
Mom was always very involved in our school stuff. She was knew all our teachers and worked as a home mom.
More to come…
