Back in the Day

Back in the day, a long, long time ago (4 years) I was a teacher. I rode school buses to take kids to band contests in the rain. I worked very hard to make sure my kids had the best.

And...I had pictures taken of me that would come back to haunt me in later years. Why did I ever let parents take pictures of me? I should have had them check their cameras in at the door. Afterall, that's what Cher does for her concerts. What was I doing in this picture? Why am I not tending to the needs of the precious children loading the bus? Why am I so happy looking? :)

My friend Ginger left this picture on my desk this weekend for me. It brings me back to the old days of band. There are times when I really miss these days, but 99% of the time I am completely satisfied in doing what I am doing now. But it's nice to relive the memories every once in awhile. Thanks, Ginger!

I remember meeting you ( and Chris) the first time at band registration at Hudson when Matthew was in the 6th grade! Wow! a lot happens in 7 years!
