Childhood Memories- The Snowman


5yrs-AR

Growing up in the south the first 5 years of my life I never saw or played in snow before. It snowed good that year. The three of us got out in the snow  and playded, made snow angels, and a rather large to me snowman.
When I came home from school I would see it in our yard a little ways back. At this time I walked to and from school alone since bio-mom had left.

One day I came home and the snowman had started melting. The dad asked me what I had done to the snowman to make it look like that. I was 5 and had never seen snow before. I didn’t understand it melted. I started crying that I didn’t do anything to it. It wasn’t my fault.  I cried tears that day I was so upset.

I don’t recall if he told me how snow worked or not that day. There was no mother there to comfort me.

  1. These stories are just breaking my heart and making me want to mother the child in you. :(

    • The hardest part of my adult hood was having my kids.. Even though I have two mother’s.. I had no one to mother me during those pregnancies, births, and the first few hard months. I missed a mom the most then.

      You are a WONDERFUL friend, even if you are hippie married to a pirate ;)

  2. Sounds like they just enjoyed tormenting you – it’s so cruel. How you ever turned out to be the wonderful person you are is amazing x
