ALL "WOW" moments are good, but...

... last night I had my BEST wow moment yet! I went to Bailey's final choir concert of the year, and we were wandering around the student art show that was put on in the commons area before the show.  We were looking at some pottery, when a friend I haven't seen for nearly a year stopped about 10 feet in front of me - she stared at me with that "deer in the headlights" look on her face for a moment, then let out a deep kind of gaspy-sigh, and IMMEDIATELY started to cry!!!  Red eyes, tears rolling down her face, the whole bit!  I was so shocked, I had no clue how to react to her!  But it was pretty emotional.... apparently, for BOTH of us!  I've known her for 8 years, but our daughters have pretty much grown apart, so we just don't see each other anymore.  I would GUESS she'd heard about my WLS, or at least my weight loss, through the grapevine.  (Hanover's grapevine is ALIVE AND WELL!)  But - well, that was just cool beyond words.  She eventually made the comment  - "Write this date down on your calendar as the day Teri was left SPEECHLESS!"     I just had to share that one, it was way cool....

How awesome to leave someone speechless and crying!  That is a really great WOW moment.
