I always told my kids that when challenging things happen, just remember someday it will make a great story. Possibly that’s the best advice I’ve ever given them. And over the years, we’ve collected some great stories.
It seems as if every time Daniel comes home from college to California, his stories get better. Like the saga of his last trip home. It was very complicated—but it pales by comparison to Alli’s latest story— of HER trip from Texas back to California towing a U-Haul trailer.
I could never tell it the way she would; I’m hoping she’ll write another post and tell it herself. I’ll just say this much: even though her new car didn’t make it safely, Alli did.
Meanwhile she’s somewhat settled in her new home and I just got home, too–with my own stories to tell….starting tomorrow.
