Family never forgets anything
The greatest thing about family is they’ve known you longer than you’ve

You think you remember these things, but actually you’ve heard the stories so many times they have become embedded in your memory bank.
Every time my family gets together we hear the stories. And the stories all begin the same way — “Do you remember the time?” And it goes from there.
I don’t remember the time my brother threw a toy truck at me and split my lip.
