Oh, those split seconds that make everything change.

Dang it! If I could just erase that one moment from history, all the following ones would have been so different. Swaddle them in that bubble wrap! Or maybe those blow up sumo wrestler suits!Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03485338098212307793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-6759420250401338792016-03-18T07:04:48.846-05:002016-03-18T07:04:48.846-05:00Ouch.

They take it as it comes and life goes on. It's a quality worth adopting. Not all old people feel that way of course, and I'd say my mother-in-law didn't - she frequently said there was nothing good about getting old. <br />I can also understand your feelings about them falling. It's not easy watching your parents grow old.
