Tashy. in The Napkin.

Ten days until I see her. I’m so excited.

She loves me. Her kids love me. Her parents seem okay with me. Her niece and nephew ask about me. That’s important. I may be Jersey Strong, but my heart may belong to Oklahoma.

She came back to me. Everything is as it was. I scheduled my flight to coincide with New Year’s to save money, but I think it may start a new tradition. Kids get their gifts at Christmas, and we gift each other at New Year’s.

Have I mentioned I want to take her name? Will make adopting Anja-Lisa easier, so we have the same last name.
