...I enjoyed your post and the family photographs! <br /><br />I am the oldest of four - all of us born within 2 years and 11 months' time. :)<br /><br />My little years were spent in a big (to me!) mill house. My bigger years were spent in a tiny trailer. We spent most of our time outside, so it didn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. What mattered was that we had a roof over our heads, food in our bellies, and clothes on our backs. We knew Daddy would make sure we always had those things. <br /><br />Great post! Have a great week. :)Suzanne McClendonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15563562309945754772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8063731082086337074.post-54213056503790735382013-07-29T09:26:05.704-05:002013-07-29T09:26:05.704-05:00Lovely memories and lovely family!

They still sometimes do, but it's less common. I liked that people used to be able to entertain themselves. Now they have a room full of toys and parents hear, "I don't have anything to play with."

I have often tried to give my kids the things I didn't have as a child, thinking that it would magically make their childhoods better, but I don't think they would notice or care if I left them out. What's important is the memories they take with them when they leave the house. Not how big their bedroom was or how many tv's we owned. It's the simple things that count.Theresa Mahoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10709965543595065306noreply@blogger.com
