There's a very nice woman in my apartment complex who has become a good friend for Umi. They sit outside at night and chat, check in on each other when I'm not around...and when I am, and text each other almost every day even though they live roughly 200 feet from one another. Yes, it's… Continue reading Pay It Forward
