Chelsea And Carl Are Engaged
I have know both Chelsea and Carl since they were in high school. Chelsea was one of my husband’s first students and I encountered Carl while working as a bilingual aide. It has been five years since I taught and I encounter my previous students quite often. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that my students become young adults, but I cannot help but admire the transformation they undergo in just a few years. Carl was this goofy kid and now he has become a responsible, serious young man with a steady job and big plans for the future. It may sound funny, but I feel proud for Carl and Chelsea. There has been unfair share of pain in both of their lives and I am glad to see them grow, be happy and build a new life together.
For her photos Chelsea picked my favorite local spot. I know the location inside and out. My kids and I have spent many hours collecting acorns, blackberries, rocks and other treasures there. I think you can see my love for the place in the photos. I felt elated and peaceful (despite the fact that we lost our assistant in the woods. We found her in the end).
Congratulations on your big day tomorrow. I am truly happy for you.
