Remembering when......

As I sit here and read all of the FB posts about my friends sending their kids off to school; makes me think of my own 1st days of school.  The year that I remember the most is 4th grade.  Probably because there were a lot of changes.  I was starting a new school in Allen, new friends, etc.  I remember my mom walking me into school; despite just having surgery.  I really wanted her to come with me to my classroom.  My teacher was Mrs. Long, in fact, I still see her around town on occasion.  :)

I remember when I was leaving Reed, the kids were saying," there are rats in the bathrooms at Rountree."  I'm sure they said other bad things, but this was the only thing I ever remember.  When I went to school, I found out that the school was just as clean as Reed and there were no rats in the bathroom.  I had a great 3 years there at Rountree before going to Ford; then onto AHS.  Man, where has the time gone for me?!  HAHAHA  It was 15 yrs that I graduated from high school and I can't believe it at all. 

As someone told me the other day," The days are long, but the years are short."  Man, that couldn't be anymore true!  I am excited about our homeschool journey and to see where we end up. 

Have a great year to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
