Hold Tight To Those Remember Whens

---

For this old gal…

The best part of waking up…yeah…you know it…is Folgers in the cup…the aroma…flavor…the fact that retired me can dilly dally over it for however long she wants…but the better than best…bestest…most best…is waking up to that Besties chat…those daughters of mine…kicking off each day with a good morning…touching base…a brief chat…some humorous photos…

And so it was…Ginger sending a photo of that grandcat of mine…spurring on a convo that goes like this…
hey…is that the waffle/ribbed knit from mom for Christmas…
Hahahaha…yes it is…are we twinning…
Yes we are…
Omgggg…send a pic…

Pic #1…adorable kissy face…followed by pic #2…me with my ribbed knit and nespresso latte …then came pic #3…me with my ribbed knit and my fav water cup…little did they know…that that mother of theirs just finished and posted a blog…about her obsession…with the ribbed knit…

And here it is…another one of those remember whens…those items this mama wants her special ones to have and hold dear…when she’s gone…like…omg…remember when Mom was obsessed with llamas…remember when she was obsessed with the swung glass vase…remember when she was obsessed with…the ribbed knit top…and we all got one…for Christmas…

Like omg…Lol…hahaha…awwww…

Hold tight to those remember whens…so important…so priceless…always there…to make you smile…warm your heart…a special gift…left behind…to wrap you up…hold you close…to just be there…when the time comes…that that loved one of yours…no longer…can…
​
And those daughters of mine…agree…
