I Need Someone (Specifically, Margarita) to Fill Up My Water Bottle

I miss Margarita. She's been gone for almost a week now.

Just a little example of how thoughtful Margarita is: she fills my water bottle ever night before she goes to bed. Every night. She never forgets. So, every time I drink my water, or even look at my water bottle I think of her.



She's doing fine-my parents are there with her now. They said her team did a great job on their performance yesterday, that they were very confident and commanded the attention of the audience.

Two more sleeps and she'll be home. :)

I bet they did a great job...and your parents must feel so lucky to be able to be there!

See you next week!

I've never been away from a child that long! I am sure you miss her, even if she never filled your water bottle.

Janice, of course I would, I just keep seeing my water bottle and start missing her even more. :) She'll be home in the morning. Yay!

I'm glad she'll be home soon. What a great opportunity for her! Did your parents say if she misses her family?

That is so thoughtful and sweet of Margarita to fill up your water bottle every night.

I hope she had a fun time. Your parents are awesome to make the effort to go see Margarita. And for the record, I think $120 is more than enough spending money, too. :-)

I have that same water bottle! And boy howdy do I know what you mean about funny little things triggering your "childsickness". I miss my son so bad some days, I think it is crazy! He won't be home for 4 months- but I don't think he will fill my water bottle for me, unless I ask that is.

I can't wait for your update on how she did on this grand adventure!

You must be very proud of her and it is such a wonderful thing that your parents could be there to witness her success; )

Hee hee. Every night I fill my water bottle and carry it upstairs to my bedroom on the 4th floor. Every morning, my ayi comes and takes it away. I never remember to say anything until that night when I reach for it to brush my teeth and have to schlep back down to the kitchen.

I wonder why she doesn't realize that I WANT the bottle up there? Then I realize I'm just as silly...why don't I tell her?

So you see...I think of Ma every night, too...

Margarita must be back by the time I post this comment. Please congratulate her for us.

I bet they did great! I can relate to the "little things" make you miss them--enjoy the welcome home party! :)
