Chapter 14: Sharing Memories) How were things at the jail, Buck? They were good, Rose. Would you like to see those pictures I have, Buck? I'd love to, Rose. That's my mama and papa on their wedding day. She was beautiful, Rose. My papa sure thought so. And this is us with my aunt and uncle and Ike. I'm not in the picture because I wasn't born yet. What was your mother like, Buck? She was kind and loving. And she was wise, too. She loved me very much. I think you're a lot like her, Buck. I have some things of Ike's if you'd like to see them. We would like that, Buck. I remember this Bible. And I remember my aunt wearing that locket. It's a wonder that these things weren't taken by those men. I never knew Ike, but I wish I could've. You would have loved him, Daisy. And he would've loved you. But whenever you want to know something about him, you can ask me. Thank-you, Buck. Did you find those kittens yet? Yep, and they're so cute. The mama cat is nice, too. Does she have a name? I don't think she does, Daisy. I thought we could call her Goldie since she's a yellow- orange color. That's sounds like a good name. How many are there, Daisy? There's four, Rose. Want to come see them? That would be fun, Daisy. Oh, they're so pretty, Daisy. Which ones are girls, Buck? Those two right there, Daisy. I think these kittens need names; don't you, Daisy? We'll name this one Ginger, and the other girl can be Cinnamon. What about the boys, Rose? This one is Pepper, and this one can be Blackie. And now I think we better let Goldie feed her babies. Bye, kittens. Be good. I hear Rachel calling me so it must be about time to prepare supper. Thank-you for sharing your memories of Ike with Daisy. I know she appreciates the chance to know him,Buck. I was glad to do it, Rose. You both are family and you always will be. I'm glad you came along,Buck. So am I, Rose. I'll see you at supper.
