finished, they left the theater and went to the car. He put his arm around her and when they got to the car, he helped her inside, then went around and got in himself.
She looked at him as he sat in the seat beside her and suggested, “Let’s drive around town a bit so I can show you some of the sights. Would you like to do that?”
“ Sounds good to me. Which way do we go?”
She pointed in the direction she wanted to go and he started to drive that way. After a short distance they looked up one of the streets and saw an old-fashioned ice cream parlor. They both spoke at the same time, “Let’s go in.”
He drove up front, parked, helped her out of the car, then took her arm and led her inside the shop. They found a small round table in the corner and sat down. A waitress came over and took their order. They ate slowly and lingered as long as they could. It was such a quaint little shop.
Afterward they went back to the car, got in, and started for home.
“ It will be a great day to have a fire in the large living room fireplace. Even in the warmth of summer, the air is cool in the thunder storm.”
When they arrived at the house, he parked by the front entrance to help her out of the car and they ran for the alcove. Remembering what happened there yesterday, they again embraced and kissed gently. They entered the living room and he got everything ready for the fire, lit it, and then went to sit in one of the large chairs facing the fire. She was already seated in the other one beside it. They began to discuss things about their lives.
She related, “My parents have always been so kind and loving to me and so much in love with each other. They’ve been a wonderful and positive example for me all these years of true, married happiness and joy. It is only recently that I realize what a precious thing it has been to me. It is so easy to take things for granted, not fully considering the influences and examples in our life and how much they affect us. Parents need to be very careful what they do because it influences so deeply. They live in a nearby town and visit me as often as they can and keep in touch with me regarding my travel schedules. My older brother lives in an adjoining state, is married and has two lovely children, a boy of twelve, Graeme, and a girl, Carlita, who is eight. My brother and I were close growing up and spent a great deal of time together doing lots of things and talking about the future.”
Todd related some of his story, “I have a brother, Matt, and a sister, Dirje. They both are younger than I and live not too far from where I live. My parents are a young appearing middle-age now and live in the same area I do. They have always been very helpful and supportive of all my life’s endeavors, leanings, and experiences.”
“ My parents were the same, encouraging me as I wanted to learn to design. It was a dream from childhood. My mother told me that I did a lot of sketches even as a very small child and spoke about wanting to do it when I grew up. I have been able to keep some of them which my mother saved for me. They were very interesting. I am surprised at the details I captured even then, so I guess I had a flair for it. I was sent to the finest schools and had my own room when I was home in which to study and work. I always loved my studies and my work and have been told that I am very creative. That was a big help in this line of work as you can understand and appreciate. I want to use it well and constructively so I will have no regrets later on for what I did not do.
There are bound to be some, but I want to keep them to a minimum.”
“ My brother, Matt, is a construction engineer and supervisor and does very well in his work. He also has a creative nature which is beneficial to him in his line of work. His wife, Chantelle, is supportive and helpful to him and they’re very much in love. I know now that love is a deep caring for what happens in someone else's life. My
