Finally feeling the way I wanted to about being here.. Walking down the street today a young girl and her mother approached me because of my Unravel shirt. She asked if we were here for action days. They also happened to be here from California! The girl is a 16 yr old survivor who brought […]
After I wrote last time I set out to get packing.. I found our backpack and looked inside. Just a few things from our last trip, her Make A Wish to DisneyWorld and even though this wasn’t her bag it had her stuff in it. A barely touched magic marker coloring book. I had no […]
We have to be up super duper early tomorrow. I still need to pack! I never wait like this.. I think I just hate leaving her and the boys behind.. and I truly hate that I have a personal reason to be going on a trip like this. I am bringing my computer and will […]
