When I was little our family didn’t have a lot of money… Mimi and Papa did all they could and gave us everything they had the power, or funds, to give to us… Quite honestly I never wanted for a single thing… What they couldn’t spoil us with financially they more than made up for with outdoor fun, nature walks, and quality time spent together… In fact as I sit and reminisce quietly in my mind I think what they gave to us was so much more than anything money could buy… They taught us to use our imaginations and make fun out of nothing… We learned to rely on each other for entertainment… This, in turn, made for some very fond memories… And some pretty filthy little kids…
My mother would always tell me that the Kettrick’s were rich in love... This answer didn’t always suffice my immature and greedy little personality then… But it certainly makes me proud now! Especially since this is exactly how I feel about our little family… We may not have it all right now, but we have each other and that’s all I really want…
So when I get a little sad sometimes that I can’t buy you every little thing I want you to have, I just have to think…
Awwwwww !!!!
