Now they get to decide what to do with it!elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06572872315082254364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1105171804337429232.post-85977135173346192922019-11-03T19:39:32.442-08:002019-11-03T19:39:32.442-08:00We humans do love pretty things.

They are now well grown (probably your age), and I have realized they will not want. Recently, I did go through and clean out and gave some things that I told them they could keep or throw. The boys, I gave them their bronzed baby shoes, which I'm sure they will pitch. I figure easier for them to do it than me since they don't have the memories. ~smiles~ I have been cleaning out over the past years because I thought they would not want the hassle when the time comes. Only saving a few. I use to be such a saver when I was growing up, but not so much anymore. I agree that I too love to find lovely things, but as you say then tire of them and off they go, but oh how true they are just temporal things, and not everlasting. Have a wonderful week ahead and Happy November. :)Peabea Scribbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06985942907237746797noreply@blogger.com
