Saturday evening we attended the 30th Anniversary celebration for Westbury Christian School. It was a step back into the past. Sara and John attended WCS all the way through high school graduation, and Mark attended through 10th grade. Eloise began working there in 1975 and spent 18 years of her career leading and teaching. For those years, we seemed to live at Westbury, between our involvement with the church and the school.
We saw so many people that had been large parts of our lives during that period, and had the wonderful opportunity to catch up with them and their lives. Students have grown up and many brought their own children. We were able to visit with friends who shared some very significant parts of our lives. It was a fun mixture of remembering and getting up to date with the present.
It was a great reminder of good times and good friends, but also that life moves on to new pursuits and new friends to travel life with. And it was a great reminder that what endures in life are relationships.
