And your answers show a much more thought out, and accomplished life than mine!!! You truly have done so much to be proud of Lauri!
I am an uneducated zero!!!

And I was in awe of you, and all you could do. I remember how cute you had decorated the kids rooms. You could sew anything, and I always wanted to learn how. Does quilting count? I always wished we had the opportunity to do more together, and then your life took such a turn, right when you moved here and became my neighbor. Then you moved, and I thought I lost you. Now, here we are again, renewing our friendship. How great is that!!!

Has it really been three years since you broke your toe? That seems so recent.

Cynthia said...

I never did see you in your "toe cast", or leg brace or whatever enormous thing you had to wear for so long. That was the weirdest thing.
Your life has taken a lot of twists and turns. And each one turns out beautifully.

Kris said...

How did you break your toe so badly?

Fun tag Lauri! I didn't know you were working on your masters - congrats! And good luck with your remaining classes.
