When our family gets together, like most families I assume There are two words when spoken that can light up any room. Whether emanating from a chair, around a table or by the kitchen sink these two simple words when paired together have more power than you think. For these two word when spoken awaken a shared memory and instantly remind us what it is to be a family. These two words evoke our laughter, our wonderment…our tears of moments we once shared together that have melted into years… Allowing us to revisit together…a mutual memoir to remember who we were back then…that made us who we are Oh how we laugh or cry or smile… when these two words are spoken every now and then Oh how our memories are stirred and our hearts are filled when we hear the words… Remember when…
