Where Were You?

I'm stealing this from Kristy's blog. Hi Kristy!

20 Years Ago…

1. I was 9 years old, so I suppose I was in the 4th grade. I was a "know it all" kid who always knew the answers and would "me! me! me!" to get called on every second and when I didn't get called on I would collapse on the desk. When someone got the answer wrong, I would think "How could they be so stupid?". I'm sure it was irritating.

Hmmm...how much have I changed in 20 years? ha ha!


10 Years Ago…

I was 19 and a student at Cal Poly Pomona. I had been dating Jason for 3 years at that point. I found college to be fairly lonely all up until my final year when I FINALLY made some college friends. Cal Poly is such a commuter school that it seems you never see the same face twice.

I was 24 and had been married for 1 year. I was student teaching at I-Poly with Miss Lorelei Ortega who is now one of my very best friends :)


3 years ago…

I had Frannie! She's my darling girl and my waterbirth baby. Becoming a mom is the best thing ever. This year was also the year that I stopped working and became a full time at-home mom. That was a big life transition. Being a "Suzy Homemaker" has some strange benefits. You have more time to follow up on stuff. So you have more time to follow up and nurture friendships, more time to complain and write letters if something bad is going on, more time to learn to cook and stuff like that. This is of course in addition to the obvious benefits of "clean house, kid lovin', marriage nurturing" that you'd expect. The bad thing about it is that you make zero money and no one ever gives you a raise.

I had Adam! He is my darling boy and my fast baby. Being his mom has taught me how DIFFERENT two babies can be and appreciating their individual wonderfulness. As different as they are, they are a team and grow closer all of the time.

This year so far…
I continue to teach Bradley classes. I keep on with motherin' and homekeepin'. I'm the secretary of the San Dimas MOMS club. What else? We bought a house.

Yesterday…

I visited my friend Lauren and I went to the gym. Other than that it was a slow day.



Today…

I went to the LA County Fair with my dad and Lauren and her kiddos. It was a very nice time. We spent most of our time in the animal section. Some lady thought dad was my husband which weirded me out. So now I feel like I have to purposefully say "Frannie go give GRANDPA a kiss." Or "Hey, DAD, we're going to stop at the bathroom." Ew.


Tomorrow…

Jason's going bike riding as usual, and I'm...I'm...I have no idea. Oh yeah, we're going out for pizza with Lorelei and Meme and the kids.

Next Year…

Hopefully I'll have another baby. No this isn't some sort of "announcement". I'm just saying that it would be nice to have another baby, if that's what's going to happen!
