Kara and Marina – 2005  “sisters”

1. random singing.
2. ipod playing every morning when she gets ready.
3. coop’ins.
4. late night runs to Tops for us.
5. stupid tv shows i wouldn’t watch it wasn’t for her.
6. being able to talk dorky to her and making her laugh until she cries.
7. our secrets.
8. my co-pilot
9. when she’s sick she calls me and i make it all better.
10. when i’m sick she takes care of me…since she was 8 years old and brought me a Otter Pop and mimicked me when I told her, “Otter Pops, make it all better.”
11. someone that gets me, really truly understands me.
12. someone that can see that i’m sad and won’t stop asking me what’s wrong when i say nothing. she never gives up. she’s either nosey or really does care. then makes it all better by listening and then making me laugh.
13. just flat out going to miss my daughter..for a long time, until she comes home again.

I’m gunna miss my bear-bear!

Many of you know that Random and Odd started as a way to keep my mom and sister informed of my whereabouts and goingson, I am going to spend the next year writing to Kara while she is in VA going to school and starting her new life.

    wow…VA…she is taking a large step away from home.

    i’m not sure where in VA she will be…but i am in NC…so please if she needs something, i’m not too terribly far (and i’m not too terribly creepy either…LOL)
