December 29

I was sitting at the Mother Ship this morning in my usual spot talking with Abby and Mary. At one point, Abby got up to use the restroom, and then less than a minute later, her second grade teacher walked in with her own very tall son.

I've seen Stephanie at Starbucks a few times over the past year or so and we've exchanged pleasantries each time, but I'm pretty sure it had been quite a long time since Abby had seen her (and since she'd seen Abby).

It was a blessing to witness their happy impromptu reunion and to see those smiles.
