I have no idea why this came to mind - but I've been trying to remember specific conversations that have stuck throughout the years.
"You should really play volleyball and basketball next year." Mr. Tate - 6th grade science teacher
"We are so proud of you." Mom and Dad - throughout childhood
"Good work good and faithful servant." Jeff Seacrest - Youth Pastor in reference to a friend of mine who became a Christian.
"Your voice doesn't sound very good." Melody - 6th grade choir
"Cheek to Cheek." Amanda - 7th grade while learning a box defense
"Don't think about it, just shoot." Coach Pro - 10th grade
"I love you." unfortunately, quite a few boyfriends that obviously didn't last.
"It will always make sense." Mr. Adams - 3rd grade referencing math
"You don't want to be a ditch digger, do you?" Dad - throughout school years
"Blahhhhh..." - Chad - pinning me down and acting like he was puking on my face - throughout childhood - and still makes be gag to think of it.
"You don't want to be a doctor." Mom - later HS years.
"I think you'd be a really good OT." Mom - later HS years.
"Knowledge is Power." A bookmark I got from the library in HS.
"My way or the highway." My not so nice HS volleyball coach.
"We love you." Mom and Dad and all my grandparents - all the time
"I think about God all the time, it won't escape me - I'd believe that Old Testament stuff, but Jesus, I don't know about Jesus." A good friend the summer after HS.
"Stay where you are." God - when praying if I should continue dating my now husband.
"You will do well no matter what you choose to do." Dr. Patton - freshman honors physics teacher.
