Yesterday was a milestone I have looked forward to for a while. Gone are the days of being a 'teen' and here are the days of being an 'adult'. The past 20 years have brought extremely high, and extremely low points, but being surrounded by some of the best people, I don't think it could have been any better. I have also been on some amazing adventures with friends and family. Looking back and trying to capture 20 years in one post seems almost impossible, but lets give it a shot. The most memorable things have happened in the past 6 years or so. The first day of grade 9 to the last day of grade 12, the trips, the dances, the plays, the songs, the drinks and the laughs. High school was, as most say, the best 4 (or 5) years you will have. My high school time was filled with trips, whether it was a trip to Walkerton for chemistry, a trip to Stratford to see a play, traveling all over Ontario for the Sears Drama Festival, or traveling overseas and seeing the world (or a part of it anyways). One of my favorites was the trip to
Grease and Italy. The deep rich history, the land marks and the lifestyle was eye opening and awe inspiring. Although, no matter where I go or what I see, home will always be the gorgeous, quiet shores of Huron County. For 19 of my 20 years I have called Goderich home, and always will, even though school and work has taken me away from the country and to the city. Nothing will replace the beauty and serenity of that area. Of course the best thing that has every happened to me was the birth of my son in my last year of high school. He changed my life
forever and I couldn't be happier. With trips to the park, a smile that could melt any heart, and head strong worse than both his parents, this little rug-rat has given me a new light in my life, and will always be the most challenging and exciting part of my day. Probably the best part of having a 2 year old is that I can go to places like the zoo and not feel out of place or to old, and every time we go, I get to see his face light up with pure excitement and joy every time he sees a new animal or shiny thing. Yeah, 20 years is a long time, but for somethings it just isn't long enough and all I can say is bring on the next 20! I can't wait to share it with all of you!
'Till next time
Cheers!
