Memories of growing
Every now and then Facebook asks if you would like to share your memories and the program hauls out an old picture or video that you once posted. Well, that happened to me, just before my grandson's 7th birthday. It was a picture of him when he was two, I did not share the memory but it got me thinking about our visit.
Have you ever watched 2-year-olds at play? I find it amazing that all toddlers find life an adventure and if you think about it in two years and counting toddlers have learned many things, most of which will be not remembered at a conscious level but will be part of the building blocks of his/her personality and her/his vision of who (s)he is and how (s)he is loved.
As a grandparent, I recognize that my experiences that were shared with my grandson helped us get to know him and helped him to grow, but that he will not remember us as we are now, nor will he remember the experiences we shared. As he grows these experiences will fade into distance memories as he moves later in his life. But I am convinced that these experiences helped us create memories about him.
