He had a full beard and mustache. At first I didn't recognize him. Then he grinned at me and the twinkle in hid eye gave him away. I was one of the den mothers in his first grade cub scout pack when he and my son were in first grade. I immediately went and booked an appointment with my stylist to get rid of the grating evidence proving I was now part of the middle aged generation. That threw me for a moment.Sharon Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00695395104518983907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742202280973813643.post-78542645012484661592011-04-04T20:06:13.957-04:002011-04-04T20:06:13.957-04:00I love that story.
