Home Is Where The Heart Is

Siri was showing her old family album to her grandchildren.

"And this used to be my home when I was a little girl," she said.

Her youngest grandson four-year old Pilu showed extra interest.

"What about the swing on the mango tree?" he asked.  

Siri was astounded.

How did Pilu know about the swing and the mango tree? 

She showed the next photograph of their garden that had the swing and the mango tree. 

"This was decades ago when I was your age! How do you know?" Siri asked.

"I was the one who had set it there for you!"

  9. I think goosebumps would creeping up my spine if my child said that about a picture. A nice chill but not too terrifying which is good :)
