fond memories

Last night I was going through crates of old things from the attic. It amazes me that events from our lives will vanish if we don't have things that will jar our memory. I found an article of clothing that brought me back to when I first got married.
It immediately sparked those old fashioned "butterflies in my stomach" feelings for the husband, 12 1/2 years later. So, I yelled from upstairs in my most romantic tone " Turn off that video game and take your pants off!"
