I have a favourite corner where I reminisce. This morning for reasons not known my memories took me to my dear mother and how dutiful she was towards her children - a brood of 9. There was a programme that she followed to the 't' Once a week she would oil our hair with coconut oil. Once a month she would give us castor oil to clean our system and once a year she would treat us to a worm pill. With little money she managed to give us snacks every evening. There was a special place where she kept our plates and our eyes - just from returning from school - would go there Sometimes she would tease and the plates would be empty just to be filled after the teasing session was over. I can go on and on..........................

I do think that these old photos can bring back the happy memories. It flashes the good times, especially with our family members.

@allknowing I agree. Sometimes we still remember the good times when my late father still alive. His photos always had memories to tell.

What a lovely family photo. I come from a very small family so don't have anything like that but my dad kept an album of my sister and myself as children and I love looking at it especially our family holidays. My parents are both gone now

I have many albums after I got married - loads of them.mostly of holidays. All those kids are achievers. The one who is hiding her face is a business woman. There are two grand mothers too (lol)

@allknowing You must be very proud. It says a lot about their upbringing that they are all achievers.

It is nice to remember our old days. Our childhood days. Especially when it is related to our mother, the thought changes into a slight pain. It is our private affairs. I sometimes sit alone and cry.
