We celebrated Sigrid’s birthday yesterday. She will be 21 in a week. I gave her a chair for her little desk. She has to study a lot. I hope her 21st year is filled with love and happiness.
I was married when I turned 21. I had an accounting job at Entergy. I had graduated from college 6 months before in December. Not many teaching jobs available then. My 21st year was filled with firsts. We bought our first house. I found my first job teaching. Sig says she plans to live near us all again. I wanted to go “home” too. It never happened. Now, I’m glad I did not move back to where I grew up. Life unfolds and we live it.
