Are you now humming some *NSYNC? I hope so, because I am... So I am going to piggy back off of my friend MC and talk about goodbyes. Now I don't want to get too sappy here, but it needs to be said. The end of the summer means the end of an era of sorts for me I guess. This has been a bit of a long time coming. In college I was a YL leader and now I lead a H.S. small group at church. Which means I got/get to hang with really cool high school kids. They keep me young. Some are actually more mature than I am. Shocker. The kids came in waves. I guess I had 3 diff waves. The 1st wave left for college two yrs ago plus a few last year. It was sad, but I would survive. This year is the 2nd wave, and I feel a bit more emotional for some reason. I must have been in major denial during the 1st wave. It's sinking in this time. I am really excited for them to get to go to school, but I'm sad to see them go. It's like a lil chapter in my book is closing. Sorry to sound cliche, but its true. There is something really special about those kids that I can't really describe. I have had so much fun getting to know them. The 3rd wave will be senior this year and I am already sad. I feel like when this wave is over, I may have to actually grow up. Maybe not... I guess, I am getting sentimental. I just hope they know how much I love them and how much I am praying for them. And I hope they don't forget me:) So I guess this is goodbye. Make good choices.
Logan is in town. I cooked us supper tonight. A lil seafood medley and sweet potato fries. And red wine. I accidentally drank most of it, but it was so good. I even wore my apron. Disregard the purple lips my friends.
Now we are watching A River Runs Trough It. Holy Moly. Brad Pitt was so stinking good looking back in the day. I mean, I have a huge crush on him. Prolly because he fly fishes and wears knickers and a really cool hat. Just saying. Alright. I'm out. Maybe this movie will make me cry. Little miracles people.
Get down on it,
SRS
Sass. I thought of you the other day. Tim and I went to an artisan cheese and craft beer pairing deal at Whole Foods(don't judge). And they paired a delicious cheese with...wait for it...an alcoholic apple cider. Like a grown up, Whole Foods version of your favorite, the Woodchuck. I made Tim toast to you while we drank it.
