Sentimental Items Pillows

A Close Call

'Oh, Arthur...You sweet, blind, mad, dear, silly fool....Don't you see it could never last?'

'I met him on a Monday and my heart stood still (would you believe?)')

'It must be good chocolate for six bucks a box.'

"When I was a puppy, I barked as a puppy, I understood as a puppy, I thought as a puppy. But when I became a dog, I put away puppy things except for my shabby, old, beat-up stuffy toy. I still freaking love this thing."

"And so another trip comes to an end...with family brought closer together by a shared experience."

Have I told you lately that I love you

Attic of hopes and dreams...

"The house doesn't seem big because the kids are gone - it seems big because we've shrunk so much."

"There's no need to be em'bear'rassed about what you like!"

"I want a pony!"

Storage Unit of Love

Woman talking romantically whilst man talks about measuring the scullery.

The stone is semi-precious, so I got you two.

"The kids are growing up so fast."

"Why are you special? Because I'm your mommy, and I'm special."

"The family has spent all week crafting a beautiful service of words and pictures - far too sentimental to be of practical use."

"Don't worry - the Power of Dad still trumps the Power of Attorney."

'These days,' she says, 'nothing gets a rise out of him.'

'She won't go anywhere without her Teddy Bear...'

This cologne reminds my husband of our first kiss, years ago in the old copy room. It's eau de mimeograph.

Best Dad Ever

My first Boyfriend.

"I'm sorry, Dad. What I did was really stupid, selfish and wrong."

Romantic young couple on a bench next to a bilious old man.

The Battle of Life - Part the First

'Son, that's not just your dad's playbook...It's a record of the hugs and kisses he gave you through the years.'

Say it with flowers

"Four o'clock, dear. 'Sesame Street.'"

"The champagne aisle always makes me cry. Just look at all this imprisoned happiness!"

Forbidden love.

"I got the best gift ever! A phone call from my brother in Afghanistan!"

Can I ask you a question, man-to-man? Sure, little buddy. Is it manly to keep a diary? I've thought of journaling, to help me process all the unbearable horrors and losses I experience. Like when they discontinued the Sega Genesis. I bet journaling would've helped me through that difficult time of my life. "Difficult time of your life"? Instead, I sank deep into depression, refused to speak, and painted my Apple Newton black.

'I'm going to really miss you next year, Harold.'

'Alice, you ... you haven't changed a bit!"
