This husband and I…
Love walking the aisles of antique stores…pointing out this…laughing at that…vintage glass…comic books…cat decor… Browsing time becoming story time…remember when time…back in the day time… Those Geronimo stores full to the brim…shelves overflowing…memories of youth warming the heart… The saltine cracker tin…red lidded nut grinder…blue Amish Pyrex bowls…Scholastic poster book…kitty cat pin cushion…things we grew up with…things from the past…the past that seems like yesterday… And then…there it was…or more like there SHE was…watching mama me from her little wooden perch… Baby Waa Waa… Favorite doll of that daughter of mine…first born…first baby doll…mama me so excited pushing for a cute name for the baby…suggesting a few… But no, “Her name is Baby Waa Waa”…came little three year old words… “because she goes waa waa waa waa”… And that’s what it was…and that’s how it stayed…and now there she is…or her twin is…in an antique store…making mama me wonder where the time has gone… And so it is…in life…savor each day…savor each moment…because in the blink of an eye your Baby Waa Waa might be smiling at you in a shop in Geronimo… And that daughter of mine…agrees…
