Flash from the Past!

I had just finished up talking to some clients when I spotted a lanky guy standing with his back to me, looking at one of my paintings.  He looked very familiar.  It took me about 5 seconds to realize who he was.  It was Tyler..an ex boyfriend back from BYU college days!  It had been 15 years since I had seen him, but I knew just by his stance that it was him.  I was right!  He turned and saw me looking at him and just laughed.  The last we had seen one another, he was an undergrad and I was a little art major trying to figure out how to paint.  It was fun catching up and showing him around my studio.  He also has a family--4 kiddos, just like me.  Similar ages and names, even.  A lot has changed over the past 15 years.  He couldn't believe the once hippie girl in baggy cargo pants and raggedy t-shirts had actually become a successful artist.  It was fun to see the surprise on his face and to reconnect after all these years.
