Has it really been that long?
I'm currently in Auburn for Will Somers' graduation from high school and it makes me realize that it has been nine years since I graduated from the same school. Nine years!
I can hardly believe that little Will is all grown up now. When I first met him he was 9 or 10 years old and here he is graduating high school tonight.
I know that the time has passed. I have proof of it, but it is hard to believe that so much time has passes since my own high school graduation.
Since then I have graduated college, worked at two newspapers, gotten married, moved away from home, worked in a book store and given birth to my son. Looking at that list of things it seems like I haven't done much in nine years, but those are the major things, the "life changing things."
I find it amazing that next year is when I should be going to my 10 year high school reunion. I almost wonder how what I have done will compare to what my class mates have done. Sad thing is I would rather go to the reunion for the class after mine than my own, as I feel like I have more friends in that class.
I've never been one with goals I want to accomplish by a certain age, so I can't say I've completed them. But I feel my life has been a success in other ways. Now if I can continue to feel that way at my high school reunion next year.
