Pillow fairy...how old were you when you found out it wasn't fairies, but gran and pop-pop.
I still have memories of being loved....it's the best feeling, hands down...knowing someone wants to give you a hug for no reasonl
my tt is up.
thanks for visiting my blog and TT.
6 weeks early? My brother (now 37) was too. He is over 6 feet now and well, he's very smart but strange. LOL
You know I am a NICU RN? I've only been at it for 16 years so you can't blame me ofr any IV sticks or that NG tube incident. One of my co-wprkers was 8 weeks early, has CP and is one of the best NICU RNs I know.
My son was born 16 weeks early and well he loved to pull out his breathing tube any chance he had. he used to pull out his g tube until they stitched it in so now he will need surgery #10 to have it removed.
Nice to meet you!
That's a really great list. Some special memories, I'm sure.
Thanks for visiting my 13
My girls had all the Chalet School books. I quite enjoyed reading them myself :)
Thanks for visiting my TT
