Moments Cherished with Rachael Ann Thomas

Sometimes it is not all about the flam, going places with the family and it is not always about having fun growing up. In some instances it is just being there at the same place and time with love ones is what really matters sometimes. Everyone may not always be fortunate to have grand family expeditions sometimes due to their parents hectic work schedule. Not just the parents’ hectic work schedule but sometimes the extracurricular activities that we ourselves as children were enroll in at the time. Apart from that it might have been our school lessons, school extra lesson and private lessons would have occupied the balance of our time growing up which molded us into this well ground individual that we are today. Necessarily for some pictures are not everything but it is what you hold on to in our hearts and memories are what really treasure.

In Rachael Ann Thomas childhood memories this was exactly her case growing up. Living in a house hold with her mom, dad, one brother and sister they always had a tight schedule. If it wasn’t someone always busy, they were coming home late or everyone was just on a different schedule. It was hard for Rachael and her family to spend quality time together. As this continued her dad made it his duty at least once for the week that the entire family would sit and have one meal together. It did not necessarily had to be lunch, dinner or breakfast but whichever it was he made it happened. Rachael admitted this was something she would look forward to growing up. It was all about spending time with her immediate family that she cherished the most. There were also the occasional times that they would go to visit their other relatives. She said, it did not have to be on the holidays but when ever time permitted them too, so if they had a weekend free together, it was something to look forward to especially with the grandparents.

In life, it is not always the big things that matters but the simpler things in life that we just might appreciate the most. The stories told, the time spent in the car together, or even the little agreements that drives each other crazy, sometimes that’s what bonding with each other turn out to be. So let’s not get caught up with other people childhood memories but cherish what you had and feel free to share. What is theirs are theirs and what was yours is yours, because no one’s childhood memories are never really exactly the same.
What’s yours?
