oh man! old school!

i found these stored in a yahoo photos folder i forgot even existed. they're from a visit back to dawson creek the summer before joel and i met.

man, do i ever miss these kids. i swear i felt more at home hanging out with them than the adults sometimes. they stuck to me like glue - always wanting piggyback rides and to be hung upside down or spun around the room. i was a freaking human jungle gym for these kids.

now they're all in elementary school and probably don't remember me much. but i do remember that zachary, the one in the orange, was definitely upset that i moved. his family was church-going and he used to get up and pray for "my friend" [which was me] after i moved.

good times.
