The simple things, like nature walks and games of i-spy, are the memories that I carry in my heart. These games would continue to the car and we would spy things in and out of the car as we drove to our next destination. My mom could always find the best things to spy. When we were waiting in an arduously long line we would play wicked cool games of i-spy. I had many beautiful rocks, a collection of perfectly formed, and subsequently dried, leaves, and a host of twigs that we had imagined looked like everything from a rocketship to a brave knight's sword. My mother taught me to find joy in the common-place. We would go on "nature walks" and I would bring along a brown paper lunch sack to collect all the "goodies" that we found.
When I was a little girl my mom had all the best ideas to keep me engaged, happy, and satisfied.
