I've been thinking about posting ever since the reunion. Boy how life gets busy and in the way of doing things that we feel are important! I really enjoyed seeing all of you and had a lot of fun!!
Still, I didn't feel satisfied with how I handled a couple of things.
I realized that as soon as a film festival was suggested, that to also do the Olympics would probably be too much to try to fit into a night. Still I prepared it thinking it would be a fun way to involve everyone. I put in the Love Language quiz especially to help us get to know each other better. Kind of like Jon said, I feel like I don't know you as well as I'd like to. Due to several factors, I never followed up with that activity. I'd like to remedy that now.
If you didn't know my Love Language - it is primarily Words of Affirmation. Verbal or written expressions of appreciation mean a lot to me. Likewise verbal (or written) criticism is taken very much to heart. Sometimes I'm not as good as I'd like to be at learning and recovering from such criticism and so I miss opportunities to really connect with people. I'm sorry for those missed opportunities - especially the ones I missed while we were all together.
To make up for it a little, I'd like to invite you to share your love languages as you comment or add posts. If you don't remember or didn't take the quiz and would like to, it's at : http://www.fivelovelanguages.com/30sec.html#love
Love Ya!
Rebecca

I think there should be 6 love languages - they need to add one where love is associated with food! :)
P.s. I know that you love me and all of us Becky. We all do things that we aren't really satisfied with at times (or even lots of the time! :), but that is just part of living and learning. The nice thing about having a family like ours and having good friends is that they know those moments don't define us one bit - they can easily look past those times and see the good in us. And it is obvious that the good in you Rebecca is like one hundred thousand times more significant than anything bad you have ever done (or probably even ever just thought of doing)!
As a sister, mom, friend, and person - you just rock.
Seriously.
Thanks Clint, I needed that pep-talk.
