<em>Surprise, surprise</em>. Things have changed in the lives of my high school friends over the last few years. Go figure, we graduated from high school more than 10 years ago.

You know what's funny? The first time I wrote out: we graduated from high school more than 100 years ago. This was clearly a typo but I thought: it does kind of feel like that, like high school was 100 years ago.

But then you come home, see your friends and talk to them and it feels like high school was just yesterday. However in this moment, when high school was yesterday, you catch yourself wondering: where did this baby come from?

Then you  remember: Hey, we're 30!  No wait, we're <em>31</em>.

Our lives are no longer as simple as they once were but that doesn't mean they aren't pretty wonderful.

For example, my good friend B. has this little wonder N.

And beyond all reason, she let me hold her. How wonderful is that?!
