I had an affinity for puzzles at a pretty young age, so my mother grabbed me this one from a yard sale. This was my first "big kids" puzzle. I put it together countless times. You can see it's seen a lot of use and abuse - there's a piece missing, one piece is ripped in half, a couple of them were chewed on by my toddler brother. This was the first time I put it together in well over twenty years - the first time since my mom passed away and we sold my childhood home; the first time since buying my own home; the first time since I got married; the first time since I started a family. It brought back a lot of memories.
