Nostalgia

Isn’t it funny how memories can make you feel like it was just yesterday that something happened when it was really years ago? I’ve been thinking a lot about my grandma and my nana lately. I think a lot of this has to do with Grayson getting to know my mom and my step-mom. Him spending time with my mom has made me realize how much I miss my grandma because she was there for me at every turn in my life. This also made me realize how little I remember of my nana. I really only have one memory of my nana when I spent the weekend with her and my grandpa. I can remember us watching movies while eating popcorn. I can literally taste the popcorn since a few pieces were overcooked and I also can smell their house which smelled like fresh baked apple pie and cigars. Yes, I know, that’s a weird combination since my nana was always cooking and my grandpa smoked cigars religiously. I just know that it is my mission for Grayson to get to know his grandparents so when he is my age he has plenty of memories to recall!
