"Uncle Bryan isn't in here"
Remember when we lived in Virginia and Dad was teaching Josh how to ride his bike? I had the video camera out that the neighbors had lent to us. Dustin was running around the yard wearing his big red sunglasses that he had popped the lenses out of. He has the cutest thing! Manda was sitting by my legs, latched on tightly--she was coming with in case I decided to make a run for it. As I was videotaping Josh and his biking skills Dustin was whining about having his turn. In order to distract him I suggested that he should come over to the camera and say "Hi" to Uncle Bryan. Well, I got his attention and he came over to the camera, looked way inside and said, in all seriousness, "Uncle Bryan's not in there!" I still laugh right out loud when I think of that. Then I get sad....we lost the video so I only have the memory and I wonder where the time went....

I have long since loved this particular memory. Excellent retelling.
ReplyDeleteI can still do that if it makes you feel better! I never really have had a solid grasp on reality. But I use that to my advantage! I look on that memory distinctly and just shake my head. I also remember something about wanting to use a rake very badly. I cried and whined a lot as a kid. I think I used up my quota back then.
