Picture 11/21: Kiddo's Locker

November 21
(picture 325 of 365)

Our youngest calls this her locker:


It's the drawer of one of the end tables in our living room.  Shortly after we got the tables (2+ years ago), she laid claim to this drawer and has had "ownership" of it ever since.

It's a repository for all sorts of little critters, creatures, knick-knacks, thingys, and whatchamacallits.

All those things that make a childhood a childhood.

As Dad, I look at this drawer and smile.

Smile..... because in this drawer.... I see life, I see creativity, I see imagination, I see memories, I see fun.

And I know that someday this "locker" will be empty again.  

And that makes me sad.

Out for now......
