Aunt Mary, the memories are many! Telling me it wasn't appropriate to run around naked in front of boys (I think I was 3 or 4), dropping Mark and I off at a local fun park and stressing to Mark to not take his eyes off if me, giving me my first set of decent pots and pans after I moved out on my own for the first time to getting upset with Mark for turning on the misters in 100 degree weather because it would mess up your hair. Missing you mucho!
