Musical Chairs

Do you ever feel like the last person standing when the music stops?

Every year around Christmas time I get together with my high school friends. We had a pretty tight knit group. But as they inevitably do, the winds of life blew in and scattered us like sand across the country. Nowadays I don't get to see them as much as I'd like to - but I know that once a year, we'll get together for one night...and on that one night the years and demands of life melt away like snow smiled upon by the sun...and on that one night, surrounded by babies, wrapped in the blankets of memories - on that night we're friends again.






Haha...this isn't what I was planning on writing at all. I was going to write a funny, whiny diatribe about how all of my high school friends are married with the cutest babies in the history of babies...and then there's me (and Amanda)...but then I started getting all nostalgic and using metaphors...and here we are.

If any of you read this - I love you Amanda, Amanda, Cheryl, DeAnne, Julie, Michael, Micah and Scotty! I can't wait to see you all again next year.
