So, it's almost August and in Texas that means.....band camp is near (ok, stop laughing already!!) It's the time of year that I start calling kids that have signed up for band but, I have no idea what they play or who they are (mostly incoming 9th graders). So, yesterday I talked to a child called "Edward". He's a really cute kid who plays the saxophone and he's very excited about being in marching band. Today, I got a phone message from his mother saying, this is going to sound weird but, is your maiden name "Eberling"? Did you go to K-Town? Was your band director Mr. Alexander? I think that we were in band together! Turns out that it was Connie Silva (she was in student council together but, graduation in '89). I can't believe it ...all of this time and I've really never run into anyone except for Kelley and Aaron Stevens!!! Now, I'm going to be teaching Connie Silva's son.....are we really that old already?!!!
