- Ava makes friends with strangers everywhere we go!
- Subsequently, so do I
- We met a woman who was heading to Alaska…turns out she homeschooled her daughter (I was, too) so we had lots to talk about
- Of course Ava loved the man in the neon orange shirt- “I wear this so the people lookin’ for me can find me.”
- Ava got to see her grandma at the airport when we arrived… Seems I used to get to see her too but they were lost in love with each other :)
- Then Ava met her great-grandma for the first time…Ava touched her face and hair as if to say, “I love you already”
- G-gma’s dog Pepper was beside herself meeting the baby- and Ava would calmly jump (if you can imagine a calm, composed jump) when the dog would bark
- It was fun to see the mountains as we landed- I almost forget how majestic they are when I’m gone awhile
- Driving, years later, in the place you grew up- it felt surreal, like driving in a dream
- This beautiful moment
Thank you for a glimpse into your trip with Ava! Sounds like so much fun!!
