Right where I need to be......

Today is October 10.  It marks so many things to me....

1.  Today is my sisters birthday!  Mrs. Danielle Elias Nez came into this world and was chubby and cute and 1981 seems like forever ago.

2.  Today is also the birthday of the Williams Campus Branch.  15 years ago, I opened my first Clubhouse and completed one of my dreams!  I miss that old Clubhouse that still sits empty BUT it produced so many amazing Club Kids that are now adults and I am proud to watch them flourish in their lives!  



3.  Today was a wonderful AUNTIE day for me!  I took Lexi to The Chuckbox for lunch and then to see Sideway Stories from Wayside School (the play).....Lexi and I had read it together a few years ago and it will always be one of my favorite stories.  I actually remember reading aloud from this book at Williams while the staff cleaned and mopped after lunch.  That's what you did when you had a multipurpose room.

Then we went directly from there to see Disney Live with Lane & Colt.  Nothing like having my favorites in one spot!  Colt was playing peek a boo with me on his own.  So precious!  



And tonight............I'm home.  I use to LOVE the auction.....going back to the days of the 1980's when I was a dancer at the event to when I had kids dancing in the event (Chorus Line Production!).  Even last year, getting all dressed up!  But it's so different now........everything is different.  I drop Lexi off at the curb and she runs in.  No more getting off and spending hours talking.  I'm home on this auction night.  In my pajamas watching Little House on the Prairie waiting for my final grade on two accelerated classes at ASU.  Yes, I am right where I need to be in life.
