You’re welcome, and thank you for the added bonus to reading this story being these memories brought to mind again.

While it's not an exact match because siblings can be different, based on my brother's ancestry DNA test there is Scandinavian in our familial line, but it's only 1%, but that's enough right?

Are we related?

I believe in you, Mac. You (😎) can make it!

I don’t whine *I love the internet, nobody can see my fingers crossed behind my back*

Good afternoon everyone on what is an absolutely gorgeous afternoon.. Went out to run a couple of errands in one place followed by an errand at another place. Accomplished one errand (had planned to accomplish second errand after the first, I know that sounds weird, but just go with it, okay?), but dammit, my brain completely forgot about errand number two, and it wasn’t until I was on the subway heading to errand number three, that I remembered, I forgot to do errand number two Errand number three was groceries. Simple enough, right? Yes, it was until checkout. Messed up the debit transaction twice, and then I forgot to put something in my bag, so the cashier had to run after me to with it. Why is it, I have a superbly excellent long term memory, but my short term memory frequently shoots sparks? Edit: PS: I am not a ditz, honest...

I worked in a children’s hospital just out of school, so I can say this is absolutely true. To this day, I can recall many of these kids with great fondness. It’s not to say we didn’t experience sorrows, because there were kids we mourned, but the triumphs? They were golden.

🤣

No need to hope, tim. It’s an absolute guarantee, I will.

Tears, laughter, knowing smiles and feel good moments too many to mention. Oh, and a big sigh of relief at the end because of that near to last bit with the aunt. Wonderful - all of it, tim.

Ive only read a bit of the article so far, but am I am hooked. I lookrward to finishing it tonight. Thanks for posting it, Carl.

Congrats Parker!

Good night DiCers. Going to bed before I’m too tired to get off the couch...

Good night tim...sweet dreamz tonight and always xoxo

We did the same in Canada, too.

Well, you proved your point, didn’t you? I’d say that’s one for the win column.

Thanks a bunch, A, now I’m Gumby obsessed... Big part of my childhood this was.

Good afternoon everyone...

Good night Mac...happy dreams to you and to sean

I was beta reading, so I'm late with this... Good night tim...sweet dreamz tonight and always xoxo Hopefully, you are peacefully settled in dreamland and won't be seeing this until tomorrow.

Good morning everyone. I wish you all a great day...

This is wonderful, molly. It really is true that saying three words is not the only way to convey one’s love. You have pointed out some great examples how someone can show their love nonverbally. Take care, my friend.

Good night tim... sweet dreamz tonight and always xoxo
