I remember when i was a child, I used to sit around our little black and white television every sunday waiting for Little House on a Prairie to begin. There was me and my five brothers all excited to watch it. It was a favourite programme, very traditional and such a simple life that I wished I could live. I loved the horse drawn carts and the water well at the back of the house. My favourite bit was the beginning credits, when the three sisters, mary, laura and carrie would run down the field, the little one falling over and then laura at the end would run with her arms spread out and jump. I remember i used to copy her, trying to fly around the living room. My mother use to put my hair in piggy tails the same as Laura, I loved it. xxx They gave me so many happy memories xxx

I nearly old enough to be your mother, I was about 17 I guess when they came on, so I too love that freedom, my husband teases by doo dooing in the beginning of the song, but he sometimes watches it. The Inspiration channel is showing reruns of the Highway to Heaven, I have no preference of it being a poem or a write, a wonderful memory you shared, what you wish life could be now, an escape. I hope more will enter. Thanks for entering. Blessings.
