My Family'S Feet

The narrator has been away in New York City for some time. She is progressing very well but she misses her family and familiar surroundings. In order to make connections she started to reminisce on the family members’ feet. This has allowed her to make even deeper connections with her farm reflecting on the fruits and vegetables. She also remembers pleasant times with her grandmother and grandfather. Feet signify specific periods; they jog memories. The memorable occasion with her grandmother in the cellar is brought back to life as a result of her father’s feet. The afternoon’s lesson learning parallel lines as well as her earliest connection with books are recounted because of Lisa-Joy’s feet. Christmas is brought to life because of Matthew-John’s pinky toe. The narrator believes feet have an even greater significance because they show the uniqueness of each family member.
