First Prom. A new suit. Picking out suspenders, a tailored jacket, and a shirt that needs cufflinks.

Thinking about the car, the shoes, your friends. Realizing that a nice thing about having a brother is that you won’t have to go alone.

Mom and Dad, not being thought about at all, but hoping, wishing, that all of their dreams come true.

Sunglasses. A good friend. Belonging to something, even a small something, and writing memories into your life that are good ones.

We can’t control most of those memories, but we can do our best to give them a chance.
