So I have officially been to my ten year reunion. I just keep thinking about when I graduated from high school, the idea of a ten year reunion seemed so far away, and now, I turn around and has it been ten years or has it been five minutes? Isn't it funny how life just goes? I swear, ten years used to be a long time, but lately, ten years doesn't quite seem like enough time. Tucker is two. Cameron is four. And in six more years, Cameron will be ten, and half way grown. And it will happen in the blink of an eye.
I fear that I will turn around again and I'll be sitting at my 20 year reunion. Hopefully it will be a little more planned than this one, because we seriously hung out at the park for a family picnic, which was fine, and then the whole adult get together got cancelled and moved and I missed it because we had other plans and then it flopped big last night at the rodeo in town. Of course it was great to see the few that I saw, but there were a lot more than I would have liked to see again. I'm almost wondering if facebook and myspace has taken the place of the need for reunions at all. I was not surprised to see anyone in particular because I'd seen everybody roaming around online.
Today will be a day of rest. I am so tired from this past week! We have been cleaning and preparing for two big birthday parties, and I also helped chair our first vacation bible school at church, which required loads of work and preparation and then ended with a hugely successful week. I taught preschool and had 10-15 kids all five days. We got down on the floor and sang songs, played games, and used a lot of glue and glitter. It was so rewarding and great to be back in the swing of things as far as teaching goes.
Well, I think I'll hit the shower and then see what condition the kids are in for breakfast. I actually think they may have given up on me coming downstairs and fixing anything and they are eating chips. I'm a great mom today.
