Returning to Edmund Burke Academy

Returning to my old stomping grounds, my alumni, my family, Edmund Burke Academy. Friday, October 10, 2014, was their homecoming. So I returned back to see all my friends and my class (or part of it).

Seeing all my friends and my old teachers was so awesome. My science teacher that I had sophomore-senior year of high school was SO happy to see me and I was to see her as well. She was the first person I saw (not including the office ladies). I cried when we were hugging because I had missed her and her smile so much. We stood outside her classroom and caught up, and I told her what happened at the Fall Retreat (reference to my previous post).

When I was telling her about it I could just see a smile spread across her face. She gave me her advice as she usually does when I'm talking to her. She was so happy for me and that made me feel so good inside. I still am so blessed to have her in my life even though I don't see her hardly anymore. I know she is praying for me and thinks about me sometimes............I know because I can feel it.

The second person I was so excited to see was a little 5th grade girl named Avery Wallace. I have known her since she was in Kindergarten (K5 at EBA). When she saw me in the gym right before the pep rally she was so excited. She ran up to me and we hugged tightly (no tears though). She sat beside me and some of my best friends from my class. I told her and her class that I had missed them so much and was glad I got to see them.

The picture above are my two best friends in the entire world. I love those girls so much. They are always there for me and know how to make me laugh when I'm down. They look out for me and they love the Lord. I seriously am so grateful to have them in my life.
