Wow, so many of my own memories flowed reading this piece, thank you. The dot matrix computer! The teenage handwriting! The treasured childhood books! How wonderful to have a book your mother wrote the night you were born ❤️

I am so glad you shared this Kim. It was a joy to read and resonated so strongly with me. I love that you still have old poems from teenage you and how incredible to have those books too!

Yes to the teenage angst and the dot matrix printer! Thank you for sharing your thoughtful words and book-filled images of times past.
