Monday Mourning

I was working in the yard over the weekend and found Lucy's porcupine among the weeds in the bushes. It brought back a flood of memories. It was her first toy. I would tell her that it was her baby. I miss my Lucy.

One day,many months later, I was passing the shelf in the den where I have photos of each one of them, and I was able to remember and smile.
Put the porcupine on a shelf and one day it will make you remember and smile.; October 28, 2013 at 8:30 AM
How Sam Sees It said...: I've got a couple of Sam's toys in a special place. I come across his stuff and it hits me very hard - I feel for you, Rick.

Harpers Keeper said...: Of course you do. She was such a part of your life. I hope over time the memories become more nostalgic and less sad.; November 7, 2013 at 11:22 AM
