I was folding clothes today with cute Kate on my bed and had a flashback to my childhood. I remembered the times I pretended to do laundry in my room hauling ice cream buckets of soapy water up there to wash my clothes then hang them out on the line. (my mom was awesome to let me.--she probably didn't know it was happening:) I also used to go to this old shed behind our house that almost looked like a little house and tried to clean it up and make it look homey--like it was mine. And then finally when I would take my mom's plastic gloves from work and fill them up with warm water and wrap them up like they were babies--they felt more real this way. All these memories are wonderful to me. I have always wanted to be a mother and to have a family to take care of. I am so grateful that 30 years later I have a real family that I love so much AND that I can be with them forever.
