The lovely smells

so i have been noticing that my nose picks up smells more now. I pick out smells that remind me of home. right now it smells like missouri in the summer time when my sister and i would catch fireflies at night. Specifically at my grandma's house in the middle of nowhere, not at any of my other relatives houses...actually also my aunt's house when she used to live in a certain area before she moved.
Then it changed to the smell after a rain when the dirt was wet and i went running or for a walk in the woods.
In the mornings, it smells like home when i go out early in the morning during the winter on weekends to get the paper because i woke up before my parents and wanted those precious comics that would start my day off. sweet sweet smells of my past that i cherish sincerely and love to savor, stopping to look around and pause in my busy day, until my nose gets tired or i come back to reality.
