The Best Times

When I think nostalgically on my life the period that is most blessed to me is my first five years after my birth before school and adulthood I was free Having been adopted at six weeks being left alone by my natural mother so my adoptive parents took me as their own giving to me my home not to any other It soon was discovered I had stammer although mild then but later showed severe lived quietly in those days keep to myself these special times remain so very dear These days were filled with enjoyment having my own bedroom to sleep and play living in the countryside grren surroundings loved the scenery playing around every day These are lovely memories to look back on how these formative years shaped my mind for all the future would bring upon me giving God thanks for being so kind
