The Little Things

Taking a walk along the beach;

Driving to the grocery store;

Earning a paycheck to pay the bills;

Swimming like a fish or

Diving off the highest rock...

These are the little things I miss the most.

Riding a bike;

Jumping horses over hedges;

Going fishing;

Kneeling to plant a garden or

Jumping on the trampoline with my child...

These are the little things I miss the most.

So sad to miss them, but loved your memories of little things.

All perfectly understandable. I would miss those things too, and probably a great many more. My cousin, Evan, has MS. We don't really talk like we used to when we were young, but I think of him often. A genuinely nice guy who always had something upbeat or good to say about everything.

I've known a few Quinns over the years, and most have been boys/men. It seems like a female Quinn only comes around about once ever 30 years actually! I've always loved the name though, as well as my sister's name, Brenna. Not too many of those either.

U wishing you laughter
