Small World

Recently I was reading my new friend's blog. As I glanced at a picture that Stacey had posted of the the girls from her bible study, I saw two familiar faces from my past. Meet Abby and her mom, Rose.
I taught Abby during my second year at Big Creek. She is now getting ready to start 8th grade and has grown into a beautiful young lady. I love all of the students that I have taught, but Abby was one of the special ones. She left Big Creek after 3rd grade but always made an effort to stop by to see me and keep in touch. As a teacher, it is the most rewarding feeling to have a former student come back to see you.

Thanks to Stacey, we all got together for dinner to catch up. It was wonderful introducing Abby and Charlie. The little man wasn't in the best mood, but he did allow us a few pictures before he completely melted down.

The last time I saw Rose, I was being fitted for my wedding dress. She was there as a bridesmaid. We realized tonight that she was at the dress shop with Stacey for her wedding. How crazy is that?
