Momee


While we've been in Santa Fe, New Mexico this week the girls have been seeing red apples and lots of paintings everywhere we go. Blaine has said more than once, "Momee is following us. She's with us on this trip."

Today in SF we were having lunch and struck up a conversation with the family next to us. We discussed good places to eat, shops to visit, etc. and they said, "Oh, we're not from around here. We live in Grand Prairie... off of NW 19th in N. Grand Prairie if you happen to know where that is..."

WHAT? We were almost speechless and then only a few questions later we learned that the father had "Mrs. Rowntree for his teacher at Lee Elementary," as a postman he delivered her mail and still remembered exactly which room on the second floor of the school was her classroom. "I loved Mrs. Rowntree. I remember her well," John Alexander said.

The wife? A painter named Rebecca who invited mom to her studio so they could paint together and attend GP art programs together.

Momee is with us!!!!
