Youth....Memories
So, in my ravaged state of what many call 'nesting' I have come across some GREAT, yet seemingly ancient pictures of my youth. Top left, I was all of 20 years old and thought I knew it all!! While the pictures make me sad that I have tragically lost the appearance of my youth, I am alternatively grateful for the wisdom and experiences the last twenty years have brought me. I really do feel like I will be a better mother, that I have been able to enjoy a loving relationship with my husband, and that I really am 'wiser' to the ways of the world. Damn, if I would have only listened to my parents when I was a kid right :) I'm sure I'll be preaching THAT to my own son in the years to come. The bottom left picture, I was all of 17, with my "Aunt" Kelli, who is only a few years older than I. She should have been my sister! Did we ever have some FUN times during summers and summer-time Mexico trips. Experiences I will never forget!...
