Beautifully written...my takeaway is that, SO often when we think back on some memories, we the children are having the best of times completely oblivious to the terrible pain and agony are parents are going through. Talking with mom about some past experiences, I've learned the same...

I'm so glad you didn't become fearful of water -- and you're right, there are memories that have impacted us. I just have to spend some time reflecting on that...

Thanks for sharing and making us reflect 💞
