Nanny Fe-Fe Visit

This is a very special post to me. My dear friend, more like 2nd mom came to visit us a couple of weeks ago. It was so much fun. I loved talking with her as well as watching Sophie love her. Phyllis is one of the most amazing people I know. I met her during my college years at Lamar. I would go with my classes to her school to teach lessons to her students. I was fortunate enough to get her as my mentor teacher while I student taught. Our friendship grew everyday and she became my 'Texas' mom. After I graduated I was able to teach at the Elementary school right down the street from her, plus I was able to coach the middle school volleyball team from her school. So, it was great I was able to see her everyday. During the two years I taught in Beaumont we spent a lot of time together. We went to two teaching conventions together, one in Galveston and one in Fort Worth. She seriously reminds me of my own mom. We would laugh and cry and do all the things moms and daughters do! On the way home from our trip to Fort Worth we hit a deer. She made me feel so safe and comforted me. We hitched a ride with a stranger, but I never felt scared because I knew Phyllis we take care of me. I get tears when I think of her because she is so special to me. I wish I could see her more. We have a hard time calling eachother because our phone conversations turn into 3-4 hour marathons:) But its worth it! WE LOVE YOU NANNY FE-FE!
