Sitting in the over stuffed chair Missy had image from the past floating through her mind like a patch work quilt. A little girl taking a nap on her grandparents bed with her head laying on the window sill watching her aunt and uncle bringing home her new born cousin clara. the little girl was three but that was a important day that has floated through her mind many times over the years. A patch floats by with the family around the christmas tree and Clara must of been around two and her mother being dead 18 months already. That was the year that her dad gave Missy and thier other cousin romie thier cinderalla watches from Clara. the watch was still in Missy's jewrlry box only she had no band. There is patch floating around were Missy was little and she was at a hospital looking at a baby in a incubetor and then a woman in a bed with tubes in her. She has never been sure weather that was clara and her mom or it was clara and then later her own mom in the hospital and her own mother was never able to help her figure this memory out. There is a patch showing a little girl standing by a fence and a little boy standing on the other side. She remembers being told years later this little boy would bite her arm when he got the chance she didnt remember this part on the little boy standing on the other side of the fence. Then there is a patch where she is riding in a black car it was some kind of ford and she is standing (yes) standing between a really young grandmother and grandfather don't have a memorie of where they had been going or coming from but a small memorie of store flits around. These patches link up a memorie of sorts for missy to have a big picture she is forming. Missy lays her head back to tired to continue to put anymore patches together.
