Old Counrty Store
I got home from eating @ Bustagutt B-B-Q, & I thought it was pretty good. Well my son Mike wants to go to grandmas, so I said OK , so David stays with us. By the way this was after church of course , Baptist have to eat. Any who we get home after dropping off the Pastor (Mark Laiklam for those of you that don't know he he.), & J (well everyone knows who J is he he.). They were watching The Incredibles, which David says Mr. Incredible is me (So does my wife he he j/k) I think it is because he is strong.lol. David starts missing Mike so I tell him lets go to the store walking, he tells me okay daddy. I wanted to walk down the food.The store is about 2 or 3 blocks from my house. We take off, & I start remembering when I used to go to the little stores out in the country, when I was younger. I remember the screen doors with the springs on them that would make all this noise when they stretch, Also when they would hang bells to let them know when people would come into the store. I remember buying candies, like 90 some candies for a dollar, for tax of course, they were 1 cent a piece( hey there no cent symbol weird or I just can't find it). Childhood memories of a country store, I tried to find a picture online of a country store , but none that I liked. Anyway as I was walking, holding Davids hand, I thought to my self,"Self, will my kids ever know what a country store looks like? All they know nowadays is Circle K, well not anymore they are called Stripes now. When we were walking back I looked @ David, he is so happy he got a candy, then I noticed he would hold my hand. We continued walking, I would let go of his hand, trying to give him his sense of independence, I noticed as I would swing my hands back and forth, he would manage to hold my hand again. It felt so good that he wanted to hold my hand, I will cherish those moments, they will eventually pass, but I pray not. I want my boys to come to me when they need me.............Remembering.
