“Serve the LORD in sincerity and in truth... Choose you this day whom you will serve.
But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

Memories



Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.

I decided to play along with everyone else.



Here's how it works:

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together, or one of the first memories you have of me. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Riding bikes all summer long. Playing house and you were always married to Steve Avery. The infamous Black Princess. The tire swing. Sleepovers at Grandmoo's. Waiting for the bus in the wee early morning. Always being jealous of your handwriting. Flying in for you wedding. Being at the hospital when Levi was born.
