Today I had the day off with the intent of sleeping all day and having drinks by the pool.....
HOWEVER,
that's not what happened. Alina and I decided to go to Typhoon Lagoon, where my perky, helpful self saw this mom and her 2 kids who looked really lost and offered my assistance. IMMEDIATELY the children, Ainsley and Cully fell in love with us because they found out that we know Mickey Mouse! We spent the afternoon going on rides with them, when the mother, Betsi, told us that Ainsley was a make a wish kid about 5 years ago at the young age of 4. She is back for another Make a Wish trip.... she doesn't look ill at all, and has the MOST energy a kid could have! She is such a sweet heart and is a cuddle bug. She rode on my back in the wave pool, and with Alina and I in our "family" river ride.
My heart breaks for this mother, who was so grateful to us! We even "called" Mickey Mouse to see if he would be at EPCOT tonight.... which he will be =)
I'm meeting up with Ainsley, Cully and Betsi tonight at EPCOT to meet Mickey Mouse and to watch Illuminations.
Sadly they leave Monday, but Ainsley has requested to be pen pals! and she almost cried when Alina and I had to leave the park today!!! =( She is such a sweetheart, so please keep her and her family in your prayers!From Left to right: Katie, Ainsley, Betsi, Cully.
