- the lemon tree in the front yard
- sitting on the counter while my dad cooked
- watching plums grow on the tree in the backyard, for the first time since anyone could remember
- climbing that tree
- the barbie house my dad made for me
- trying to save a baby bird
- walking up to my best childhood friends house
- the croaking frogs at night
- the pale lavender of my room
- forcing my dad to shave his terrible mustache off
- Beanie Babies, everywhere
- Trying to create a rolly polly farm
- Capturing caterpillars in jars and poking holes in the lid
- blowing bubbles
- looking up at the sky at night while my dad barbecued and thinking the stars were simply an effect created by someone pulling a piece of black velvet with small holes poked in it over the day sky
- making forts
- A birthday party for Toto (stuffed dog), and my mom making a cake for him
- Sitting in a rocking chair with a boy neighbor from up the street and promising to marry him
- Splitting my lip with a frisbee
