from my Grace in Small Things # 82
1. the way mom leans forward, closes her eyes and throws open her mouth to laugh with her whole body
2. the way mom is enthusiastic about a good effort
3. the way mom is teeny tiny and delicate with that big laugh
4. the way mom thinks I'm grand
5. the way she loves dogs and underdogs, the saxophone and fried oysters, the ocean, the river, sweet ice tea, the way she loves me

that's great, made me get a frog in mah throat. my dad had this trait, "the way mom is enthusiastic about a good effort".
he once got four pairs of socks for christmas and he bellowed, FOUR PAIRS! FOUR PAIRS! he was silly like that.
Awww. I hope my kiddie says nice stuff about me like that when she's no longer an evil teenager (kidding, kidding - she's a very unevil teenager). It's nice to see a new post again, too!!
Piglet, he's must be loveable if he was enthusiastic about socks. Thanks for the love, Piglet
XUP: I wouldn't be surprised if Little XUP made a film about you one day. and thank you for the love too. You may have missed one...I double posted this weekend.
