Les Mémoires
Here it is almost Thanksgiving... Adam loved Thanksgiving! he would pile his plate high 2 or 3 times... AND he'd eat it all! We always sent leftovers with him when he was older. He always loved getting together with the whole family, seeing people he hadn't seen in awhile. I'm gonna save him a leg this Thanksgiving...
It didn't matter what age Adam was, he would curl up next to me and just sit and watch TV. I miss those times...
We moved to Oregon in June of '96. Adam was 6 years old. That Christmas was wonderful. Dakota was only a year old and so much in love with his uncle Adam. Nikki & Jason (and Dakota) were living with us at the time and Dakota was absolutely glued to Adam. We had a fairly small apartment at the time, but hey, there's always plenty of room for family. On Christmas Eve, everyone had finally gone upstairs and I had five minutes to myself before I had to put out all the presents from Santa. My rocking chair was at the bottom of the stairs next to the Christmas tree. I decided to have a cup of tea and read a few chapters of my Dean Koontz book...Well, I was totally engrossed in my book when something caught my eye. I glanced up at the stairs and little hazel green eyes were peeking over the rail. I smiled and Adam said..."Mommy, if you don't go to bed Santa won't come!" I said "Oh I think we have a little while. How 'bout you come sit with me until I get sleepy?" Adam jumped the last few stairs and cuddled with me until *he* fell asleep. I carried him back up the stairs and put him in bed with his Dad. I went to bed shortly after that and just in the nick of time too!. Santa came right on time and everyone had a verry merry Christmas. :D

When you and Garrett were teenagers, I used to drop you off every day during the summer down by Rotary and give you each a weekly allowance. You two brothers would run from the Skate Park to the beach to the Aquatic Center to the Movie Theatre to McDonald's. You always seemed to have a great time and you always had an adventure to tell me about when I picked you up when I got off work. Now you're gone and Garrett will be 20 years old on Sunday... I love and miss you, son. All the time
