Wymount (Y-Mount)

As I walked up to the BYU Health Center for a check up last week (this is Sean - so don't go freaking out that we're pregnant or whatnot - I just had a checkup) I walked past Wymount Terrace - the On-campus married housing at BYU.

As I was walking, the weirdest thought struck me: I'm in roughly the same life position my parents were during my first memories of life. My first memories happened here in Provo, while my family lived in Wymount Terrace (the buildings above), while my dad attended BYU.

Wymount Terrace is married student housing. Heidi and I are married students. We could live there. We could live where I lived as a kid (years 3-6 of my life were spent there). Is that weird to anyone else??

OK, OK, backing up, sure, my parents were several years older then than Heidi and I are now - my dad didn't start BYU till his mid 20's, but still - we're in roughly the same life-situation. I very well COULD be living in the same apartment I grew up in as a kiddo.

It's just funny to me how little things strike Heidi and I like that to remind us that we're not in just a young-twenty-something bliss (an easy state to get caught up in for us) - that we are young adults preparing to do adult-like things. We're growing up!
