I met Mark a looong time ago, in fact, it feels like a lifetime. Mark is about 2 years older than my daughter and the two of them used to babysit for my family and a bunch of friends when we had our group evenings out. We'd have everyone bring the kids to one house and the 2 of them would watch the little ones. One day we came home to find a stinky diaper on the kitchen counter, toys everywhere and a couple of slices of pizza's on the ceiling and on the rotating fan. Needless to say it was a very bad nite for the sitters which they had a lot of cleaning to do after the other parents took their children home.
Mark is now a grown man with 2 children of his own. While we all (my husband & his brother) moved to Florida, Mark, still lives in Ohio, we all love Mark as if he was blood family. Mark and my daughter still remain friends till this day and we all can't wait to see him.
Mark bought a one way ticket for his wife to Florida while he and his children drove. He'll travel through the rest of Ohio, through Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia and half of Florida. What would normally take 13-16 hours of driving, will take him longer because of the children. He left Wednesday evening, as of last night, he was in Macon GA that's still another 6 hours or more of driving before he reaches us. Poor Mark I don't know what possessed him to drive alone with 2 small children. I'm hoping to see him sometime today if not tomorrow and will be sure to take lots of pictures.
Until then laterz..
