Do you remember the times when
you sat up with me while I was coughing all night or had that really high fever
and puked a lot? Yeah, those were long nights, huh? Do you recall all those times
when we’d go shopping and you’d pick up a stuffed animal and you’d make it tell
me that it wanted to be my best friend? My face would get really red. Was it
you who always made sure I had good meals and nice clothes? I’m pretty sure
that was you. Remember when you gave me all your money so I could do crazy
stuff like take off to the east coast for no reason or get an education? That cost
a lot of hard-earned cash. Do you remember offering my kids the same kind advice as you gave me when I didn't know what to do? Those words are always so helpful.
Remember that stuff?
I do.
