It’s a lovely moment, the sentimental writer returning to the ‘source’ so to speak. Your piece suffers from inconsistent use of verb tense. You have past and present mixed all together. It’s a horrendous pet peeve of mine, I know, but it really disrupts the readability and believability of a piece. For beginning writers I generally recommend (or at least I have decided to now) avoiding the present tense. It has its uses [also note the possessive pronoun form should be its and not it’s], but more than likely it’s just going to trip you up.
