She would give me money to go to the liquor store to buy a bag of chips and chocolate cream soda. One night I noticed they had "twofers" by the cash register For Broadway Shows. It's hard to believe but my brother and I could go to a Broadway show for less then $10 for the both of us on Wednesday matinees. They were spectacular. We knew we were experiencing something that was way beyond our imagination and this would not last long for us. My brother is 7 years younger then I am and my mother thought that was a great way for us to spend time. She was overprotective by 1960's standards. Yet she had no problem with us taking a bus and walking to the Theater even when that meant walking up 42nd street which had quite a reputation. I'm trying to remember the names of the shows we saw or find a list to refresh my memory---but nothing.

When I spend times with my sibs, we often share old memories. Most of the time we laugh so hard we feel like our sides will split, but sometimes we cry. No matter what, when we spend time doing that it feels like NOTHING is ever wasted. And it definitely keeps the bond among us strong.
