My mom came for a visit and shared these photos with me. The first is one of my childhood homes. My family lived here when I was born, and we didn't move until I was in the middle of first grade. I have so many fond memories of sneaking down the staircase when I was supposed to be in bed, riding Tonka trunks down the drive, stepping on a nail in the old silo pit, sliding down sand piles (a gravel pit was located a ways behind our home), and sliding in snow too. I was especially happy to see this little red school house standing though. This is where I went to preschool. I remember playing Farmer in the Dell, playing musical chairs and singing "I Know an Old Lady." So Fun! I'm so glad I have decided to become a teacher so I can go back to school.
