A few things I miss....

I had a wonderful childhood. My parents sacrificed so much (and still do!) to give my sister and I a happy home. They spent hours playing with us, making special projects, and just spending time with us. As I look back on those times it reminds me of a few things I definitely miss....

*homemade playdough
*making jello dinosaurs
*"helping" my dad build something
*chicklets
*hide and seek
*mom's daily video (she had the video camera out everyday!)
*learning how to cook
*playing dress up
*AYSO soccer
*finger paitning
*red gummy bears
*my dad reading us a fairy tale every night
*catching lightning bugs
*playing at the park with my mom
*making a tent out of sheets and chairs and camping out in the living room
*watching Anne of Green Gables every time it snowed
*making christmas cookies
*playing outside from morning until dinner time

Those are just a few of the things I loved about my childhood. I'm so thankful for parents who took the time to play with me and love me and teach me. They made my life so full and happy:)
