LOVE 5

I love that snow is not permanent.


Enjoying the blizzard here. We went over to Ben and Rileigh's for dinner and games. The snow is really coming down now. I think we have 7 or 8 inches.



I asked Talia to tell me something that is permanent---something that lasts forever.

She said love.

I agreed and smiled. The love she knows does last forever!

Then she added, "And socks. Some socks last forever."

( We were folding a pile.)

I laughed loud. What?

I don't think socks are permanent. Lincoln was talking to his Dad on the phone a few nights ago. He mentioned that I will be the big 32 in a week or so--and then he made fun of me a little. His Dad's response was, "I have socks that are older than that."

I have some old socks too. I have a pair (my oldest) I got in high school at Contempo for my 17th birthday! They are white with a little ruffle on the edge. I loved those socks. I still do.

What about you?
Do you have some old socks?

Socks...hmm. I wish I could throw them away and buy new ones every month. We have a box of socks.

I am not kidding.

I have socks from college. In fact, maybe I should get rid of them.

I think a LOVE of socks can last forever. :)

My favorite socks are argyle socks. They are red. I love to wear socks that totally clash with what I'm wearing - because nobody can see them anyway. My secret.
