Today, I Want to Remember

July 18, 2013

I want to remember how you wanted to get on a plane and go to Ohio when we dropped your aunt off at the airport first thing in the morning.

I want to remember how you ran to ‘push the button’ that opens the doors at school.

I want to remember how you tripped and fell, skinning your knee, running to the rec center.

I want to remember how you dutifully paid attention during the first 3 minutes of swim class, then spent the remaining 27 doing whatever you wanted.

I want to remember how you read to me One Blue Fish during the drive home.

::The Name::

Five Baht Elephant. My mother is from Thailand, where elephants are royal animals. Growing up Mom would tell us to save our pennies, "in case a man came to our door selling elephants." At the time we thought it was the most absurd thing ever. Now I realize it was the Thai version of saving for a rainy day. Lets hope that we can buy an elephant for only five baht!
