I'm so excited, I've been tagged for the very first time. Sandi tagged me for a 10, 20, 30 year writing project. Once you answer, you need to run over to RelevantBlog, and leave a comment and link on her blog.
10 years ago, I was a newlywed. I had been married for 7 months, and we had just moved to a brand new city to work with a church there. We had 3 months for a Dale to find a job. He was hired Oct. 31. :D
20 years ago, I was in a new school. After being at the same private school for 6 years (K-5th) I had to go to the public school. I was making friends and trying to adjust. Oh, this was also at a time that my mother would let me walk to her office after school. (About a half mile away.) Times have changed. I wouldn't let my daughter walk that far by herself.
30 years ago.... I actually don't know. I would have been around 17 months or so. I think we may have been in Texas at that time. My parents were foster parents for a children's home.
So now I need to tag 12 people. Sandi tagged me, so I can't tag her. Let's see.... Marie, Michal, Amber, BooMama, Teodo, Laurie, Giz, and.... anyone else who wants to play along.
Hugs,
Melinda

What's up? We're home. That is neat to know. I never knew your parents were working in a foster home. Blessings to you!
Hey -- I enjoyed reading this! I was coming over to say, no pressure, because I couldn't tell if you were glad to be tagged or felt panicked! :) So I'm glad to see that you jumped right in.
I can't believe that you've been married 10 years!! WOW! Congratulations!
Sorry that I forgot you had gone to public school for those years -- you are in so many of my early childhood memories that I just assumed that you were a part of 6th grade, too! I honestly couldn't remember a lot of details about 6th grade except for the fact that the boys in our class made our teacher cry almost every day (surprise, surprise).
And I had no idea that your parents had been foster parents in TX -- I had always just assumed that they'd always been in Searcy...I guess everyone had to have moved there SOMEtime! :)
I loved learning more about you.
I can't believe you've been married 10 years either. I still haven't seen pictures of the girls because the pics you sent through yahoo wouldn't show up or come through.
I responded.
Well, school day has begun. Must be off. Blessings for the day.
