Our memory works in odd ways.
We remember the things that are really high, really low, really distinctive & really unusual.
I remember....
8 years ago, it was hair wash day. I planned to get up earlier and wash my hair before heading to school to teach. Except I slept in! 🤷🏼♀️
Okay, no big deal I’ll use some dry shampoo and wash it tonight...
Turns out I only had 2 little sprays left in the can & no baby powder or time to run to the store.
Alright I’m wearing my hair up today, problem solved.
I was shortly after 12 noon, I just let my kindergarten kiddos in from lunch recess and hubby was standing there at my classroom door. This wasn’t unusual as he worked 10 minutes away.
But he was dressed up — he did mention he had an interview today, so it made sense. He wanted to make sure he looked good for it. He did!
He left then a minute later called me back to the door with a HUGE bouquet of florals and got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. 💍
I can’t tell you his exact words, nor can he (he was so nervous). But we can both tell you all the details leading up to and after that moment.
It’s funny how our memories work.
