I Remember...

I remember making her laugh...

I remember making her cry...

I remember her hands covered in flower when she made fried chicken...

I remember her watching from the deck me, Jennifer, Jeff, and Brent act like crazies in the swimming pool...

I remember driving and getting Diary Queen dipped cones on the way back to her little house...

I remember her hanging her laundry on the clothes line and the horses would come out and greet her...

I remember her face at Christmas time... and her Sock- Shop boxes...

I remember her watching Jennifer and I opening Christmas gifts, my things where purple, Jennifer's always pink...

I remember her sofa's were always covered with blankets (which I never understood), with her tweezers, mirror, and gossip magazines sitting on the table...

I remember going to get my favorite orange juice when I would visit her house, "Bright and Early" and letting me pick out my favorite cereal (always something Mom would never allow)...

I remember crawling around her house after we were supposed to be asleep and hearing her yell "Get back in bed" one hundred times...

I remember driving her insane when Jennifer & I used the phone book to find pen-pals... We got a sweet TV repair man!

I remember her chasing me with a wooden spoon when I would prank call 911...

I remember her telling me to get off the phone when I was waisting time talking to stupid boys...

I remember her always giving me the biggest hugs and she never said I love you enough...

I remember her being so proud of me getting into Auburn... She became an Auburn Tiger at heart.

I remember calling her because she was the only one who knew what was going on in Days Of Our Lives too...

I remember visiting her and eating what dad calls "country morning breakfast...she always cooked... she was an amazing cook...

I remember introducing her to TJ and how beautiful she was at my wedding...

I remember telling her I was naming Karoline after her...

I remember the first time I introduced her to her grandson, Anderson...

I remember this summer her taking Karoline to get her first Dairy Queen dipped cone...

I remember her saying my name and looking at my face when she was so frail in the hospital bed...

I remember being up with her all night, thankful she knew to call my name when she needed me...

I remember holding her hand and saying good-bye and telling her I loved her with all my heart...

I remember telling her over the phone today that I loved her and heard her say "I love you too" to the best of her ability...

I remember so much more...

I remember Mama... and I'll NEVER forget!

My sweet Mama Perkins went to be with the Lord today at 9:44pm!
