AN APPLE A DAY MAY KEEP THE DOCTOR AWAY, BUT IT SURE DOESN’T KEEP TIME FROM FLYING BY.  TODAY I FOUND MAXSON’S LITTLE MOTORCYCLE JACKET AND SHARK SHOES IN THE CORNER OF HIS CLOSET AND HAD TO ADD THEM TO A PILE OF OTHER KEEPSAKES.  I MISS SEEING HIM WEAR THESE, AS THEY WERE HIS FAVORITES.  THESE PICTURES WERE TAKEN ON A DAY WE WENT FOR A SHORT CRUISE ON HIS SHINY, RED TRICYCLE, AND READ BOOKS ABOUT CARS IN THE SUN.  AS FOR THE APPLE… IT WAS HIS FIRST RED DELICIOUS EVER, AND I LOVE THAT I’LL ALWAYS HAVE A PICTURE OF HIS VERY FIRST BITE. {GRIN}

HOW SWEET IT WAS TO WATCH MCKENNA PULL MADDIE DOWN THE STREET IN THEIR LITTLE RED WAGON!  THERE’S SOMETHING OH SO SPECIAL ABOUT TWO SISTERS SHARING TIME TOGETHER IN THE SUNSHINE!  MCKENNA’S SWEET SMILE AND MADDIE’S CRAZY CURLS DEFINITELY CALL FOR OODLES OF SQUEEZES… JUST AS MADDIE’S SHIRT SAYS, “I ♥ HUGS!”
