Twenty Years 1988-2008

Okay, tonight is my 20 year high school reunion! I can't believe that I have been out of school for that long. I hate the fact that I'm getting older. I wish I could go back and be that kid again, younger. High school was not really important to me at that time. I blew it off and never worked to my potential. I barely made it to graduation because my grades were so bad. I have report cards from way back and I can't believe I was that stupid. If I was given the chance to go back in time and change one thing I would go back to high school and work hard and get the grades I needed to go to college.

I am looking forward to tonight to see people that I graduated with. I haven't seen most of them since our 10 yr. reunion. We were still finding our place in this world. Some of the people that are coming our people that caused me hurt and pain. But, as a Christian, I am forgiving and if God sees that I need to talk to these people, I pray that he gives me the strength.

I will post tomorrow and let you know how it went. Here is my graduation picture.

My 8yr. old babies!





My Twins turned 8 yrs old on Feb. 16th. It's hard to believe that they have grown that much. It really does seem like yesterday that we brought them home. When they were born, we could hardly tell them apart and now they are so different. We are so blessed with 4 beautiful, happy, and healthy children and we are doubly blessed to have twins. It's so cool to be a mom of twins! They are the last of my children and even though it was really touch at times, I would not trade it for anything. They have helped me grow as a mom and have given me so much. They are still buddies and sometimes have seperation anxiety when they are away from each other. They are so different in their personalities. Lauren is very passive and caring and compassionate. She loves to clean and really loves High School Musical. Lyndsey on the other hand is very dominate and is part girly-girl and part tomboy. She likes to be alittle bossy but Lauren puts her back in line by telling her SHE is the oldest.



So, Happy 8th. Birthday Girls! We love you very much.
