Just Yesterday

Just yesterday I stopped in my hustling-n-bustling to watch and listen to my youngest practicing piano.  It was a must-be-drawn moment. I find myself saying Just Yesterday a lot.  "Just yesterday, you were yay-high."  "Just yesterday, you used to say Wavy-blue instead of Navy blue." "Just yesterday you called your brother Warnie, 'cause William was … Continue reading Just Yesterday
