Three generations...is that right?

Dear Jessica,

I was actually a pretty big fan of your mom. Even though I was not in her class (so far as I can remember) she was always nice to me on my frequent visits to the office. There were very few teachers that were nice to me, and this had a rather huge effect on me.Funny thing was I don’t think it was until much later that my defective brain put two and two together and saw that you were her kid. I mean you guys looked so much alike, and the last name, but somehow it just never clicked in my head. In either case our involvement with one another seemed mixed in my memory.

I don’t recall you being mean to me or vice versa, but I seem to think there was some form of mutual poking and teasing one another. I am sure whatever it was I had it coming (and I would be willing to bet you did as well).

Is it weird being a mom? Its kind of weird for me to think of you as one. Mostly because if it weren’t for your facebook, in my head you are still like 12 years old. The image I see of you when I think of you is that of either elementary or middle school. I see pictures of your kids on there and I know it is normal for kids to look like their parents (duh) but it is kind of uncanny seeing the resemblance. Much like how the way you look reminds me of your mom. Funny how we never really spent time around each other. I guess that is the thing with school, we grew up together more or less, but social circles being what they are, I guess that is just not how things work.

All my contact info it out there should you wanna have another night at harveys like a while back. It was fun to be out with folks I knew from way back when. I know you have a new baby that is probably eating up your time like crazy, but at somepoint I imagine you will need a break. When this somepoint happens let me know, we could try and assemble some of the other old folks together and have a couple hours of “grown-up” time playing the remember when game. While I am perpetually a single guy, without any kids, I can do my best to atleast be marginally entertaining.

Today was a great day, but tomorrow our FBfriendship will end,

Curt
