My Forever............



You are my forever............

Forever Young in My Eyes

My mama &dad and with two of my children
Have you ever thought about how parents and grandparents appear to look the same and never seem to age  the older you get?? I thought about this the other day I was watching home movies you know the 8mm.reel to reel kind with no sound and everyone has their eyes almost closed shut from the big bright lights shinning in their  face.While watching the movies,and yes crying a little..It seemed as though my parents and grandparents ages have stayed the same over the years.When I look at them nothing seems to change,It's as though they have stood still in time.Not getting any younger and not getting any older just the right age for the right time....                          

When I see my parents and grandparents I see all the wisdom in their faces the accomplishments,love and joy that has made them who they are today.I wonder, how my own children see me? Do they see me in the same way?Wondering regarding to my own children and grandchildren...What age of time will they most remember me in ? Will they see the wisdom of a older much wiser mom and grandparent? The older they get...It amazes me that the more things change the more they seem to stay the same..

 Sometimes the clock may seem to have stopped but the calendar is always racing ahead.The youthful smiles and laughs are etched into the deep groves on their faces...And for that they will forever in my heart be young...."Holding on to some people no matter how old they get,never lose their beauty..They merely move it from their faces into their hearts" (Martin Buxbaum)

The best pancake maker ever!!
I love my parents and grandparents and in my heart they will forever be young... "There are days of oldness,and then one gets young again".(Katherine Butler)
