Down Memory Lane

After years of meaning to, I finally contacted my best friend from when I was little. All through elementary school we were buddies. We lived a few doors away from eachother, spent our summers at the community pool and riding bikes, ate ice cream on the steps of the Union Hotel (pictured right) with her little brother and my little sister, and watched hours of TGIF (hey, it was the early nineties). Her family thankfully brought me to church many a Sunday and eventually to Baptist summer camp where the whole Gospel began to make sense....

And now we are grown. She, too, is expecting a baby soon. For me, there is a sense of completion in sharing my experience with morning sickness with the person who knew the intimate details of my first grade crush. I owe a deep "thank you" to her for sharing her childhood with me and making mine so blessed; amongst the rich array of people I knew growing up, she is by far one of my favorites.

You can never ever leave

About Me

I am a wife and mother, a writer by occupation (scary, no?). My new year's resolutions: grow a garden, keep the house clean, less wasted time, more Richard Simmons.
