Dr. Suess: A Short Story

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory ~ Dr. Suess. This quote can’t and won't stop circling my brain.

I never really cared, but as I looked back at those small little pictures, I realized that those little memories hadn't gone away and they are important.
