While sorting through items we have stored for many years, now in preparation for our future move, we came across my little cedar memory box filled with love letters I sent Jon when he was a junior at USU and I was living out my dream of being 'Gidget Goes Hawaiian' in Honolulu! What fun to reread each letter; and true to form my writing then just as throughout the years was very conversational and filled with fabulous details I had forgotten about. The merriment and mayhem my girl friends and I experienced during the months we lived and worked on the island was delightful to reread once again! :) It was while living in Hawaii that I realized I was in love with my best friend Jon and rushed back home to him! I married the guy - and soon to be 39 years later over the hill Barbie and mid-life crisis Ken continue to rock and roll :) I LOVE this man!!
And speaking of love notes ... My heart went a flutter recently when I was greeted at the airport by our daughter, son-in-law and sweet little snickerdoodle grandson holding a "Grandma will you be my Valentine?" poster! For a woman who values the written and spoken word I LOVED each of these experiences!!
