Jason and I realized we hadn't seen Kelli, one of my best friends from middle school, in over a year and a half! We had a great time visiting her and her adorable family this long weekend. Jason and I mostly marveled at the parenting skills required for a four year old and ten year old. It was utterly exhausting just watching. Even though we are both teachers, and you'd think we were used to being around kids, it's so different when kids aren't in a classroom setting. Hats off to parents of toddlers!
This photo shoot almost didn't happen, since John had flu-like symptoms and it was freezing outside, and it's almost nearly impossible to get a four year old to do what you want in order to take a great photo. So, we mostly played and I snapped.
I love this photo of Kelli and me. Thanks goodness for some brow waxing and hair straightening - things we didn't do in middle school!
I can't wait to hang out next time!
Great shots! There is nothing like time spent with old friends! Parenting can be exhausting, but the thought of teaching kids in a classroom frightens me! Hats off to you, your husband, and all the other teachers out there!!
