My cousin Amber made a surprise visit to Maryland. I hadn’t seen her in over SIX years so I was really excited that she decided to swing by and stay a few days. We spent a summer together in Alaska and she was such a positive example of good in my life. She has been off saving the family business for the last five years and they were finally able to sell it (big positive) which meant she was unemployed and free. She took a driving tour across the country and part of that trip was me! It was non stop chatting between us for the two days she was with me. We hiked around lake Needwood with three kids (overly ambitious) but we made it. She also tagged along to soccer practice and entertained the kids. She also accompanied me to Activity Days which wasn’t so good (we learned about balloon tying which was fun for the girls but wasn’t such a good thing for Amber since she suffers from Globophobia). It was too fast of a visit but such a happy distraction from regular life.
Since the world we live in is so small, there is actually another girl we played with in Alaska living in my ward with her family. We all got together and swapped stories of that wild summer!
Christina, Sharon, Amber
