The beginning

It all starts somewhere. Some of us remember when and were and some of us don't. I don't know why we remember what we do.

Most of us reading this blog were born in the 60's however it doesn't matter as growing up in not time specific. Until we are born with an ipad device that feeds us I think we are still fine.

My mother did a great job saving my baby clothes which was quite interesting. Some cool outfits I think that may not work now but you know what they will come back. I was born with very little hair and some of the outfits you would swear I was living on the Atlantic Coast. The interesting thing is when you are born you have no idea about the others that will be born in the same upcoming months.

Plus you don't know how they will effect your life over the next 18 years. Why can you not come out knowing what is ahead? I guess because you need to be surprised. You need to eventually be emancipated from what I'm not sure.

Being a child was cool, you didn't need to worry about anything, food, money, companionship. We had the world with every step we made. We were the show.

If we had brothers or sisters it didn't matter we were it. Every action we did was incredible and our parents were so proud. We had the world. We were better than a new puppy who no matter what would give the owner immediate love. We were the one's that were going to make it happen. We were the future.

It's all fantastic how it comes together. However guess what in a small town we may have come out in different months but we are he special future our parents had in mind.

How do you become special? Birth at this point we have done no wrong we are the only species that can have a loaded diaper and be loved by most of the population. We can pitch a fit and know that we have controlled the adults and no one will look at us like we did something wrong.

Here is the deal. In the beginning this is not like who's talking to you movie this is about fellow infants coming together which we did.

Female or male is didn't matter we began the year bond. We began hanging out wherever our parents took us.
Guess what it was the beginning of a life bond. From diapers (we didn't have pull-ups) to activities it was great. From the beginning we were always connected and will always be in our smalltown.

We walked the same first steps maybe a different platform but the same steps at a different location.

I wish I could remember the diaper age but I cannot. I know this the seed was planted for a lifetime friendship and it wasn't the shared diaper experience.

It was the shared family and the shared town. Pre-K was at the United Methodist Church. I remember it.

I wish I could remember the diaper days with my friends. All I know is that it became a lifetime friendship.

I hope you enjoy the read. Thank you for being part of the conversations.
