Your story has touched me "beyond words". It wrapped me up in a cocoon of memories so strong you can not only feel them , but smell them too. Born in "59, chasing fireflies at night could be added to the nostalgia list. You could have been my precocious little sister! Much love to you my friend of the heart. The joy and hope you spread are like dandelion seeds on the wind.
Suzy...You made me cry. I must confess, we did chase fireflies, but called them lightning bugs...and we smooshed their tails off and pretended they were jewels on our fingers. Shhh...don't tell the PETA folks. Thank you so much for your beautiful comment and encouragement. -Janice
Oh Janice, we did the same, running around Grandma & Grandpa's farm between the lilac bushes and through the peonies. It felt magical to glow like that. And when you leaped into the air, and your feet left the ground, for a brief moment you actually believed you could fly. These simple pleasures in life are to be guarded and held in trust for our future generations, that they can be experienced and understood 7 generations from now.

I loved this beautiful love story Janice. Family is a precious thing for us to treasure.
