As I was walking around their bedroom, I 39little reminders of them. Some Christmas gifts were still 40in boxes. There were 41on the wall, which I guess must have a 42meaning to them.

As I looked at those emblems hanging 45with all the photos that he treasures, I 46that this was an important part of his life, but I never spent the 47in talking with him about them. The photos of my mom with her close 48made me realize her life before she was my mom. I had been so 49running my business to raise my own family that I 50the chance to know about their past and experience.
We sometimes don’t realize something is 51for us until we have lost it, so it’s not too late for us to talk to our parents about their past. I am writing my story to 52everyone who is fortunate to still have their parents 53to invest some time to learn about them. I am grateful to have 54of my parents. So I still have time to talk with them. I hope that readers will 55from my story and find the time to talk about those things in their life that mean so much to their parents.
