So this delightful young person arrived at the airport today. She is so much a part of our past. A child from the UK. From the early school days. From the time when we were happy.
I am constantly overwhelmed by the beauty of the children we knew as they have grown into their skins. This young lady handled the lengthy trans-equator trip with aplomb. She sat up late with us and discussed: 'single parent families', her recent break up, and mine. My how time has flown.
It's a funny thing, time, eh? It seems like only yesterday that I was inviting this young lady to birthday parties and picking her up from school for play dates. Tonight we were able to reflect upon our experiences together and, for me, gain insights into life back then as our children saw it.
Have a wonderful time exploring our amazing country JJ.

She looks so much the same! The two pictures are very similar but still, she has just the same smile! Hope you have a good visit!
I thought the same thing! She was horrified by her teeth :-)
