Thank you. I was a huge reader and still am.

My body hasn't changed much. Still energetic and athletic 60 years later.

@LiterateHiker Mine hasn't changed much either, I am energetic as well. Sometimes I wonder if I am thin because I fidget so much..

My mother saved it. She did this for all four kids.

After Dad died at 51, Mom sold the big house we grew up in eight years later. "Come and get your things in the attic," Mom said.

So I flew to Michigan from Washington State. Felt delighted to find this poem in my box of keepsakes. Now I have it memorized.

@LiterateHiker My grandmother, made clothes for my Teddy Bear, to stop him, (only male in name, ) wearing out, and it was then kept as an example of her crafting. I then many years later found that I have, in a drawer bottom, a collectable vintage model, worth real money, and doubly so because the collectors like original hand crafted clothing. Maybe one rainy day if I am short of money.

@Fernapple

What a great idea! I will remember that. Thank you.

@LiterateHiker Since it is one of the few things I have of my grandmother, it would have to be, perhaps, the last thing to go.
