I have known Lisa and the girls—Linsay, left in the picture, and Rochelle on the right—since I taught Linsay 15 years ago. (WOW! How time flies.)
And I love staying with them when I am in Texas because:
- The girls make me laugh until my sides hurt, and I feel as if I will BURST (quite literally)!
- Linsay remains one of my all-time favorite students—I loved having her in class, and I love hanging out with her now that she is an adult.
- Lisa’s husband is one of the nicest men I know. He understands the importance of “girl time.” AND he makes breakfast when I am staying there (the best huevo rancheros—yummy!!).
- Lisa is a true friend.
No matter where I go or where I live—a part of me will always call Texas home—and it is because of my friends.
