...I graduated from Messiah College with a degree in music.
So did my friend Stephanie. See? Here we are on that momentous occasion. :)
And here we were, earlier today. A couple of things have changed since that first picture was taken. ;-)
Stephanie and her four kids happened to be traveling through my town today on their way from Pennsylvania to Kentucky and stopped by for a visit which delighted me to no end! Although we've kept in touch through the years, mostly by email, I'm not sure I had even seen her since our college graduation. (Is that right, Stephanie? I forgot to ask you today.) :) It was a joy to see her again and meet her children. The only problem was that we just didn't have enough time to catch up; there were so many other things I wanted to ask her about! :)
Even though some things are different than they were 16 years ago, Stephanie's kind, sweet spirit is still very much the same. She's the kind of friend that I wish lived a whole lot closer than she does!! :)
Scrolling through this post with Susannah at my side, after scrolling past the picture of you and all the offspring she asked "Can I see the boy that is nekked?" I scrolled back up and she pointed to Tobin who is shirtless. I explained to her that it's ok for boys to not wear shirts (but not for girls!). :)
ReplyDeleteMiriam - that's so funny! I will say that Tobin just saw this picture and is mortified because a little tiny bit of his underwear is sticking out above his shorts - horrors! :) You know how common it is for my boys to be shirtless, so I suppose the most amazing thing about this picture is that 3 of them actually have shirts on! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow - how amazing to meet up after all that time. And how *totally* amazing to have both been blessed so much :)
