First Day of School

Olivia started 4th grade, she has two male teachers this year. Mr. Howard and Senior Maravi for spanish.
Anna started 7th grade, she had such a hard first day it broke my heart.  She cried to me at bedtime for a long time.  She was saying she doesn't have anyone to sit with at lunch and is alone at recess.  She has started talking about the "popular" kids, I hate all of that.  Hoping that her second day will be better.  I think this is the hardest thing, watching your kids go through tough times.  Wish I could protect her from all of it. 

30 Year High School Reunion

This is my old Sunday School class, friends from 1st grade on.  Had really a nice giggle with this group.  Felt like I was 10 again hanging out with them.  

My experience with High School Reunions is not a positive one.  It brings back a lot of the feelings I had in High School of not being popular or not fitting in.  I found it odd that  many old friends would introduce me to their spouse by saying that Angela and I were the wild ones in school, which is strange to me.  Not saying I didn't have my wild days but I never had a drink of alcohol or sex in High School. This brings me to another thought, if I had grown up anywhere else I would have probably been considered a goody two-shoes.  But because I didn't stay active in the church I am considered an outsider.  I do wish I had grown up outside of Utah.

Sweet Tony going to my reunion with me.
