The Zoo


This is my Fro Me to You. This pic was taken in 1991. I was recently divorced and starting nursing school. I was dating a very nice young man who for some reason did not want to get serious. Looking back on this picture I now understand why.

This picture says it all in so many ways. It was taken at the zoo. But my whole life was a zoo back then. The nice guy lasted a few more months before he bailed. I finished nursing school a few years later and met the love of my life at my first nursing job.

I love the pictures. Nursing school plus kids equals more difficult. :P

Isn't it funny to look back and have the "A ha moment'? It's a lovely picture though and your kids are beautiful. I'm glad the love of your life found you.

Thanks for playing along!

I love the picture. Mommy hardly ever get to be in the pictures with the kids. So you have a great memory with you and the kids. :)

Thank you Crazed Mom. I am so glad that I have that picture. Funny how clear your life seems through the rear view mirror.

He might have been a very nice man but I am glad God had better plans for you. Our vision for our life is never as good as God's! I think you looked like a great Mom! Love the new look!

That's a wonderful photo and a great story. God just knows how to work all things out, we just have to be patient for His plan!

I love your new look, it is fabulous!

While it's a great shot to have it looks like your in the monkey cage and those cute lil' critters are clinging tightly!

Cute!

My first thought was "wow, great cheek bones!" then my second thought was what Ronda said!!

So glad I found you!

Ok, Where Was I? said...

ha, ha...a zoo. Still, that first guy didn't know what he was missing. Zoos are so much fun. Cute photo.

I found you through the momdot.com website. I love when I have those revelations 5 years later or so. It's like "oh now I get it" So happy to hear you found the love of your life. That's awesome.
