Ahhhh, well I know that you are all thinking about my first romantic love, "What is she going to say? Who is it? When was it?" All questions running through your head right now I am sure. I am sorry to inform you that you might be a bit disappointed, because there are no rules to this thing and when I read "First Love" my first thought was not of a handsome young man...weird I know!
I will have to admit that my first love sprung up when I was quite young. So young that I can't even remember when it happened. All I remember is the smell of fresh cut grass, the sound of birds and the wind rustling through tall weeds, the feel of the sunshine on my small little sun kissed arms and the joy I felt for being here in this world! You might have guessed it, my first LOVE was LIFE!
One of my earliest memories I have is walking to my friend Meghan Winegars house from my grandmas and grandpas when I was probably just three years old. My mom was with me of coarse,but I remember her having me stop to smell the roses. Then I remember looking at these trees close by and I felt so small! I am pretty sure there was a nest of baby birds chirping somewhere in that tree. I remember seeing the sunlight as it shown through the leaves and with the combination of all these new sights, sounds and smells I knew I was hooked on this beauty all around me! That is when I knew that this life I had been blessed with was something that I would love forever! That love has only grown since that day over 20 years ago!
How were you reading my thoughts??? I wanted to know who!! Once i read life i said out loud, "Boring" ... but no what a great first love to have :)
