Okay lets play this game. Please feel free to leave your comment on how you know time is flying and you are getting older.
For those who don't know I am a middle school counselor. I just started my seventh year at the same school. I started off as a teacher and after finishing my masters' moved into the counseling office. This school happens to be in the same school district I attended and feeds into the high school that I graduated from. So this was bound to happen at some point. I just thought I had a couple more years.
So Friday it was my birthday and I was at work handing out schedules to the incoming 6th graders. As it poured outside a cute little girl walked up, showed me her new picture id, and with her was her mom. I had walked into the building that morning with this family and thought the mom looked familiar. So as I saw the id I immediately recognized the last name. Yes, I now have my first student of someone I graduated High School with. Oh my how I am getting older.

If you are old, what does that make me? I recently told Joe that when I was running (in Belgium) and ran past a group of teenage girls I thought about the quote from Dazed and Confused where Matthew McHoweverYouSpellIt says,"That is what I love about HS girls. I keep getting older and they keep staying the same age". I feel exactly the opposite. Ha ha. Happy Birthday and you are so not old! Miss you!
Okay I should have also said that I don't feel old, these are just things that remind me I am no longer 21 or a HS girl:)
