And... by the way, I'm publishing your comment as we speak, so you'll get the link. <BR/><BR/>:) See you soon, <BR/><BR/>Annieaniceplaceinthesun.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12356497322124481526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-53133354537899965782009-01-14T23:02:00.000-06:002009-01-14T23:02:00.000-06:00Sue, You wrote a great favorite simple memory. The...Sue, You wrote a great favorite simple memory. There is no love like the love we have for a child, and vice-versa. <BR/><BR/>When my son was born, my faith in God and miracles tripled ten times over...and I don't think I've felt as good about anything I've ever done or will do again. <BR/><BR/>Plus, if I understand you correctly, what you're doing goes way beyond "rising to the occasion." You're really an outstanding person, and I don't mean to be gushy, you just are-<BR/><BR/>Children need all the love they can get, especially from family, and it's true how much they change our lives. And if I'm right again this is not your first rodeo? <BR/><BR/>I believe babies are heavenly reminders of the miracle of life, the joy of birth, the gift of kindness, and the need for love and tolerance.<BR/><BR/>People say that children do not come with a set of instructions, but God knows where they're going Sue, God know whose loving hand will be guiding them through life. <BR/><BR/>Your answer is spectacular, and I thank you for your contribution. <BR/><BR/>And you couldn't have given me a better compliment than what you said in your final sentence. You made my day, or rather evening. I've been behind all week. <BR/><BR/>You're the greatest Ettarose, we need people like you~ <BR/><BR/>Thanks again~ <BR/><BR/>Huge hug, <BR/><BR/>Annieaniceplaceinthesun.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12356497322124481526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-33692034413804873632009-01-14T18:12:00.000-06:002009-01-14T18:12:00.000-06:00sometimes long post are well worth it..and this on...sometimes long post are well worth it..and this one!<BR/><BR/>i will have to return for more tuesday's question! and not be late the next time!The Musehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09698847569200418376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-60997335053046592892009-01-14T10:07:00.000-06:002009-01-14T10:07:00.000-06:00Annie, I will not try to make this a maudlin story...Annie, I will not try to make this a maudlin story. I wish I had had the memories of a Mom that you all have. I am very simply, moved by something I can only feel though all of your words. A simple moment that first came to mind is when I was at my D's ultra sound and I will never forget the words of the Doctor when he said it was a girl.I had a moment of pure joy when I thought of a conversation we had several months before when a question of whether to terminate or not came up.That little girl is my whole world as I have custody of her. She will always be to me something that might not have been and the world and myself would have been a sadder without her. I hope this answer was all right and not sad. I really think very much of you and admire your laughter and your strength and the love you have from your children.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178737973585191754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-6116053473232248862009-01-14T02:49:00.000-06:002009-01-14T02:49:00.000-06:00Dawn, Thank you for the nice compliment on my stor...Dawn, Thank you for the nice compliment on my story. It means a lot to me. It is one of my first posts on ANPITS, and it won The Rising Blogger Award. Plus, it's about one of my favorite people who left me with tons of joyful memories. <BR/><BR/>I adored your Jack Frost story as well. I don't know how you do it, but by using just a few words, you flooded my heart with the same secure emotion you must have felt with your mother at the window. <BR/><BR/>She sounds like she was a great mother...the kind of Mom that was born to do the job. Which sounds a lot like someone I know. ;)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for another great answer~ <BR/><BR/>And tell Jack Frost hello for me, will you? <BR/><BR/>Luvs ya, <BR/><BR/>Annieaniceplaceinthesun.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12356497322124481526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-70199351339544758462009-01-14T02:35:00.000-06:002009-01-14T02:35:00.000-06:00Grace, Yes, I'm sorry about the phrasing of the qu...Grace, Yes, I'm sorry about the phrasing of the question. But, I'm glad Sandee helped, she's good about that~ <BR/><BR/>I had to think and think and think about how to phrase it too, perhaps I should rewrite it, and ask, What is Your Best Simple Moment? But for some reason I keep going back to "favorite." <BR/><BR/>I'm sorry my story was so long, and that it didn't do it for you. <BR/>In any event, the important thing is you did get it and gave a terrific answer. <BR/><BR/>Great imagery, I felt as if I were in the moment relaxing during a rain storm. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for contributing~ :) <BR/><BR/>Annieaniceplaceinthesun.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12356497322124481526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-48429470327670286532009-01-14T02:26:00.000-06:002009-01-14T02:26:00.000-06:00Sandee, I was really touched by your story.

I will think of it when I walk in the mall. <BR/><BR/>I was worried about how to phrase this question, but I should have guessed you would know what I meant and carry everyone along. Thank you~<BR/><BR/>I love the way you write about your mother. I can see you two walking through the mall. <BR/><BR/>When I read that you didn't "necessarily shop" and your vivid memories of the daily phone calls, it made me think about how about how patient time can be, because sometimes it stops and just lets life happen. <BR/><BR/>Great answer~ <BR/><BR/>And I'm glad I'm back too~ I love you too Sandee. Big hug back to you~ :))<BR/><BR/>Annieaniceplaceinthesun.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12356497322124481526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-83184004741123818032009-01-13T16:56:00.000-06:002009-01-13T16:56:00.000-06:00I'm so glad to see Tuesday's Question!

My mother woke me up earlier than usual for school and brought me to my bedroom window. <BR/><BR/>"Look" she said, "Jack Frost was here last night and left a beautiful painting on the window just for you."<BR/><BR/>I was spellbound at the tiny snow flake shapes... and I truly believed that Jack Frost had painted them!Dawn Droverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07411044010089842985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-62270610823732591552009-01-13T14:39:00.000-06:002009-01-13T14:39:00.000-06:00I have thought and thought and I don't have one.

I must admit it took me a while to understand the question but Sandee's story kinda made it clear. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps lying on my bed with the lights out watching a rain storm with the leaves pasting themselves to the window panes and the shadows of the tree branches dancing madly in the wind? ....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2912920652511807597.post-84694752381462862062009-01-13T14:26:00.000-06:002009-01-13T14:26:00.000-06:00One thing that I think of often is walking the mal...One thing that I think of often is walking the mall with my Mother. It's something she enjoyed and I loved her so much that I would always go with her if I could. I hate to shop and she knew that.<BR/><BR/>We wouldn't necessarily shop, but just walk and talk. This has been a most fond memory. <BR/><BR/>Mom has been gone coming up on 19 years and if I've thought about anything related to her more that our mall walking it would be our daily phone calls to each other.<BR/><BR/>For years I would cry while at the mall upon seeing a mother and daughter walking along talking about whatever mothers and daughters talk about. I've since quit crying and now it's a fond memory of very special mother and daughter times that I'm so glad we shared.<BR/><BR/>On a recent trip to the mall with my husband and granddaughters, I mentioned how I always think about mom while walking the mall. It seems like yesterday sometimes and other times it seems so long ago. A simple thing that means so very much to me and always will.<BR/><BR/>Glad you're back. Love you Annie. Big hug. :)Sandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785788498697004273noreply@blogger.com
