Man I've Fallen Behind. Gratitude Challenge Day 6

I'm sorry I missed a few days here. I've been so busy. Jamie put an offer on a house I didn't even see, which just made me upset for the day. Its a beautiful house from what I can tell in the pictures which made me not AS mad. I went to the Musical and everything. Which again was just amazing like always! Now I'm going to do this, find an email for my academic advisor, catch up on greys, glee, and antm. Then who knows!

Todays challenge is to call someone I haven't talked to in a while. Well I did this yesterday but didn't get a chance to write it in! I didn't call her, but I picked her up and took her to beauty and the beast! Her name is Katie. Shes 8 years old now (well almost), but she was a HUGE part of my life. When she was 5 months old her mom left for basic training and her dad was taking an internship in the cities and she was living with her grandparents. I babysat her almost every day for that summer, and her mom was only back for about 7-8 months before she got deployed to Iraq. I pretty much helped raise her from 5 months-2 years. I hadn't seen her in almost 2 years after that. Things were so busy with her family and mine and she had a lot of moving around. So I called her dad up and suprise picked her up to take her to the musical! Shes gotten so big! We had an amazing time talkin about the things she remembered from when she was with us, and the few times after! It was great, and shes such a loving child! I'm glad I'm going to be living closer to her again, she changed my life, I had to learn a lot just by babysitting her and she helped prepare me for being a parent later in life!
