Went to work this morning at 7. Worked with Dom. super easy morning.
Sitting in Gladys' room with Dom and Janice, we began a discussion about our kids. I showed Janice a tiny photo of Lucius that the school had given to me and the rest of the parents in our children's school pictures. Her eyes focused on the name of my son's school, then on me, and she said, "I know this school. I used to bring my son to this school."
"Really?" I said, surprised. She had brought him there when she was a baby. Then Janice said something that made my eyes go wide and my jaw drop. It evoked a tingly familiarity, the character of which was unidentifiable.
"Valery's son went there too. D.J."
"D.J?!" I probably yelled as my head jumped forward and nearly off my shoulders. "Aww! He's my son's best friend! Oh, Lucius was so sad when he moved and stopped goin to his school! We didn't know her number!" I gushed. Lucius will be so excited when I tell him! That's amazing!
Now I'm home and I think I'll wait until tomorrow to call her. I left work an hour and 20 minutes late by accident and I just hope they don't notice. I came home, sat down, journaled, and that's it. The boys will be home in 45 minutes. For now, I think, I'm just gonna read my book.
