[QUOTE="MO_cows, post: 1145818, member: 9169"] When I remember childhood, it always centers around my grandma, my dad's mom, because she raised me from a toddler until about age 10. I remember being sick and what good care she took of me. Orange flavored baby aspirin, chicken noodle soup, and 7-up for the flu. She would rub Vicks on my chest for congestion, etc. It was such a feeling of being loved. I also remember her curling my hair on Saturday nights for church on Sunday morning. First with rags, then later with the pink foam rollers. Again, a feeling of being loved to have her gently work on my hair. The neighbor lady across the street was a fantastic gardener. Their yard was almost all flowers and vegetables, hardly any grass. She grew flowers I had never seen before, the giant purple alliums for one. I loved to wander around and smell the flowers while she and grandma visited. That is also where I saw my first hummingbird, at first it scared me because I thought it was a giant insect! They had color tv and ours was black n white, so we would go over there to watch the Billy Graham specials. Thanks for starting this thread, it was a pleasant trip down memory lane. [/QUOTE]
