As I was going through some boxes at my mom's house yesterday, I found a couple items from my childhood. These are few and precious since most of them had to be tossed out when I was in junior high.

One incredible find was a book my mom bought when I was a toddler called "School Years". It was a scrapbook that kept track of my family tree, my school photos, and what my personality was like as I went through each grade. For every year from kindergarten to senior year my mom enclosed a school photo and had me fill in the questions. Most of it is in my handwriting except for the years I didn't get to visit my mom, which just included a lonely paragraph in her handwriting, explaining where I was that year.
