Remember When? A Hallmark card
While out shopping yesterday, I was picking up a card for my nephew's birthday, and this one caught my eye. I bought it b/c I really liked the message:
REMEMBER WHEN?
Remember when grown-ups seemed glamorous?
When people said Thank you and please?
When moms called their kids in for supper at dusk?
You played Hide and Seek and climbed trees?
Remember when downtown seemed far away?
You caught lightning bugs in a jar?
When drugstores had fountains, most kids had a bike,
and you had a wish for each star?
Remember when no one had pedigreed dogs?
You read comic books by the ton?
You bought penny candy?
You drank chocolate milk?
Expected each day to be fun?
If these simple things bring a smile to your face
Whenever they're heard or they're told
It means you were lucky to have such good times
(It also means you're kinda OLD!)
Happy Birthday!
On the back of the card it says this card was inspired by original greeting cards from the Hallmark archives, dating from the 40s and 50s.
