Highlights

Just felt in the mood to lay out some highlights of my life.  In historical order, of course.

- Birth (obviously)
- Childhood and adolescence (this is between me and my therapist, thank you.)
- Twelve years old, I accepted Jesus into my life.  Now that's something I can bank on!
- College (Me make brain grow!)
- Second year of college I studied abroad in Florence, Italy.  (Ah...sweet memories and way too much pasta.  That stereotype is NO joke over there.  They eat a LOT of pasta.)
- Law School (Can I just say how much I still adore San Diego?)
- Second year of law school I studied abroad in Barcelona, Spain.  (Retirement plan - move to the Costa Brava on Spain's Mediterranean Riviera)
- Third year of law school some guy kept following me around everywhere I went trying to find reasons to talk to me.  Married him that summer.
- More school, advanced tax law program.  Finally graduate and NO MORE SCHOOL.  I'm 25 years  old and have two bachelor's degrees, a master's and a doctorate.  (But I still don't know how to program a VCR and spend hours concocting a grocery list which I leave on the kitchen counter.)
- Have first child at 28.  Held him in my arms and said, "Lord, You can come back now, I'm ready to go!"
- Moved to Bakersfield, bought first house and husband broke the sprinklers for the first time.
- Had second child at 32. Another son.  Seriously, Lord, You can come back now.  Before they tell me to drop them off three blocks from school.  Please, come back??  Have You seen gas prices?  Come on back.
- Finished my first novel.  Hope to add another highlight soon.
