When he suggested it, I was reminded of a night long ago. I was young. It was one of the first years we lived at the lake. There was a lunar eclipse. I can remember Mom waking me up from a dead sleep (no easy task I'm sure) and taking me out on the deck to see it. I remember not totally getting it and being very sleepy but it's a memory I treasure to this day.
Now, I am under no delusion that out girls will remember tonight. However, I do want to make sure that we do spontaneous memory making activities like that. Honestly, I'm not sure it would have occurred to me. I guess that's why God put Ralph and I together. We complement each other well. This was totally an activity I loved but probably wouldn't have thought of until after the fact. Ralph was quick to say "Let's do this tonight!" Love it.

Thanks for sharing!! You are right, those are some of the most special memories!!:0)
ReplyDeleteI heard about the super moon after the fact. Sad I missed it, but I'm glad you were able to see it! Brian and I got up at 3 or 4 one morning to watch a meteor shower. Well worth the effort!
