Rummaging in my attic- found in a withered white box; one each for the three of them- my son's and two daughter's births. Small treasures, hidden for years discovered as a surprise- imprints of their tiny feet and beaded name bracelets too. I'm blessed that I found them now- for many, long years have passed since I held my sweet newborns- now with their own families. Each in their sixtieth year with stored treasures of their own; to find again one fine day- recall their memories too. Such quick surprises grant us great joy in reminiscing- remembering joyous times; one of life's most precious gifts!
