      Introduction

      1971 was a time when updates on the Vietnam War were broadcast on the evening news. February of 1971 was a time when Apollo 14 landed on the moon and returned to earth. But for me, a little girl of 8½ years, February of 1971 was a time of awaking about other little girls and friendships.

      I was in Mrs. Young’s second-grade class with the same classmates I had in first grade and kindergarten. February would bring a special time, a week-long celebration of Valentine’s Day. I remember making and decorating my Valentine’s-Day sack. Those white paper sacks decorated with pen, glue and glitter sat on the edge of our wood-topped desks for an entire week. Each sack would fill up with valentines brought in by classmates every day. The end-of-the-week-Valentine’s Day party was something to which we all looked forward. With decorations up, cake and milk served by our moms, games were played; and we didn’t have to do any school work that entire afternoon. We were finally allowed to open our ‘white sacks’ filled with all those wonderful little cards; and some would be extra special because they would also have candy inside. Yes sir, Valentine’s Day was a big deal to this 8½ year old little girl.

      So why do I remember this Valentine’s Day among so many that I celebrated? Unfortunately, I broke out with chicken pox during the week’s beginning when we made our sacks; and I was going to miss the ‘big party’. Having a younger brother who wasn’t showing any signs of chicken pox meant that I was packed off to grandmother’s house for the week. Staying with my grandparents took some of the sting out of missing the party. Over the next few days my brother had caught the chicken pox too, so I went back home.
