As part of our student experience, we’ve been asked bring a
“mascot”- some small sort of character that we can carry with us and use in
pictures.
Well, naturally, I want to take Pirate Minnie.
Pirate Minnie has been with me for many years now and she is
quite a traveler. She has also been a representative of a group of my best
friends. We call ourselves “Family Dinner” and we’ve been together for years
and years. We all went to college together, but now we live all over the
country and beyond. From Nashville to New York. North Carolina to Haiti.
And anytime we get together, Pirate Minnie is there to stand
in for whoever can’t make it. She has been on many a vacation with us,
including New York, Orlando, St. Louis, Portland. Unfortunately, Pirate Minnie
not exactly small.

But there is another group of very important people in my
life, whom I commonly refer to as “13102.” This is the group of ladies I lived
with when I moved down to Orlando and worked for a time at a little known place
called Walt Disney World.
13102 traveled to our old stomping grounds earlier this year
to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. It was a crazy, fast, lovely, perfect
weekend. And while there, I found myself another Minnie!
Purple Minnie will travel with me to the United Kingdom and
will carry with her the blessings of my beloved Family Dinner and 13102. She
and I are looking forward to the many adventures that await us!
