Nen

We just finished a week of having my dear friend Nen stay with us. We had the most wonderful time. We went to Meijer Gardens, Windmill Island, the beach, saw Loreena McKennitt in Kalamazoo, knitted until we ran out of yarn, ate fondue... Elinore loved having the extra attention, playing with a real cell phone (who knows how many pictures she took), and waking Nen up each morning with a "wake up, Nen!"

After our drive to and from the concert I realized how few people I have in my life who are willing to lose all inhibitions and just have hilarious amounts of fun. We laughed hysterically, sang at the tops of our lungs, knitted while we watched movies,... It was so much fun. I feel like something inside of my awoke that has been lying dormant for several years. It was great. I was sad to say good-bye. I don't know if I just don't have many people around me that are like that,...or if Nen is such a rarity. There really is no one like her.

Nen, I wish you loads of adventure, good food, and good company in Greece. Maybe if you're there long enough I'll be able to come visit. Blessings on your trip.
