First born, Kelliann probably has fewer mentions on the blog than her two sisters. Between finishing her nursing degree, working nights at Aiken Regional ED and hanging out with her boyfriend, Daniel, I do not get to see her all that often. Like I have stated before, I would love to go to the hospital to follow her around taking pictures of her working in the Emergency Department, but my guess is it would take just a few short minutes before security were escorting me out of the building.
But, this weekend, Kelliann (aka “KA”) gets two mentions in as many days!
For the last seventeen years (probably five or six different wallets), I have carried with me a note that KA wrote for me when she was seven years old. I had the sense to laminate it and it has held up better than I have over the years.
Sometimes it is the simple things that matter the most…




just awesome, Ray…nothing else to say.
I am grateful for the reminder–my twins are 7, and memories are created daily.
Over a cold one, we could debate Chip and his competitors for best dog the world has ever seen.
Stay well, my friend!
Thank you, Michael.
I would love to get caught up and am always open to “a cold one”. I recall you were away from home a lot, get back to me at rvisotski@gmail.com and we can try to set something up.
What a wonderful forever keepsake!
The notes and pics are heartwarming…thanks for sharing Ray.
