I suppose in some ways it is wrong of me to look at these kids and think I know so much about them and their futures. Totally presumptuous.
However, I see so many kids, day after day, at so many stages of development. I also know and remember the people that I have encountered in my own life, grade school onward. It seems like the same people over and over. Some of them even act *and* look the same. How is that possible? It has given me a de ja vufeeling many a time. One day it is a boy or girl in kindergarten. Then next day I see what seems like the exact same child in 4th grade, then middle school, then high school....
Maybe I'm thinking about this too much. It's time for bed.
