Merry Go Round

We are only here briefly and if you don't buy your ticket to the "Merry Go Round" you don't get to ride the "jumpy horsey" though you may still recall the music.
We recently saw a movie where a guy was struggling to get back to his motherless kids. When at last he did and they jumped up and cried "DADDY" it just about destroyed me with emotion. I had to go to the back bedroom and take a towel to my teary eyes. If you've ever heard that sound, you never get over it --- even if it's someone else's kids--- it still moves you to your core. Like I say you gotta buy a ticket to ride the jumpy horsey on the Merry Go Round and the tune hangs about, as long as you do.

"Grandma!!" is also a really terrific thing to hear. Know just what you mean. Love, Karen
