Day 6- A Moment I Wish I Could Relive


I can't say that I truly ever wish I could go back in time and redo things or experience things again. I guess there might be a few if I really, really searched hard but for the most part I am happy with the past and I appreciate the one moment I got to live it and I simply look forward to better times ahead! I guess most people would expect me to say my wedding day or the day Gianna was born, etc. But I loved the moments that one time and I enjoy the memory of them. I wouldn't want to relive Gianna's birth, not because it wasn't special and sweet but because I'd have to go through surgery, all that pain, the recovery, etc. And NO WAY am I doing that ever again! Lol!
At this moment in time there is only one moment that I can truly think I would like to relive if I could.....and that is Christmas this past year at my Granny's house. I hadn't seen my Granny since Christmas. If I could go back I would spend every moment we were there with her. Hold her hand, listen to her, smile and laugh with her, hug her and tell her over and over again how much she meant to me and what a very special lady she was. I would make sure I got pictures with her and make sure that I had one of me, her and Gianna. I don't know that I have any photos of Gianna with Granny and that truly makes me sad. I know that for the most part, aside from what people will tell her, Gianna won't remember Granny.
So if I could go back in time and relive a moment - I would relive the happiness and warmth we all felt from Granny at Christmas time. How she never forget anyone's Christmas gift ever! The crowdedness of eating Christmas dinner at her house, everyone gathering around the dining room table to shovel food on their plates, trying to find enough seats for everyone! Yes, I would relive that moment and cherish every sight, sound and smell!
