Last weekend Mike and I had the opportunity to visit Daphne in Pittsburgh… it was so much fun.
I don’t know what this means but visiting our girl in the exciting, beautiful city she lives in - paired with often seeing her perform - is my favorite kind of trip. To me it beats all inclusive resorts, European cities and well, maybe not Disneyland- cuz, well that is truly my happiest place 😂 but you get my point…
I know it’s definitely because when we visit it’s often been 7-10 weeks since we’ve seen her last and we just miss her so when she’s gone!
She’s absolutely thriving in her junior year! She is super busy and very social and has the best friends supporting her! I know it’s not to be taken for granted that her musical theater group really is becoming her second family.
I even offered to stay an extra day but she has so much on her plate that it didn’t really make sense!
I remember visiting her Parents Weekend of freshman year and how she cried when I left and how my heart just broke to leave her there homesick. But this October I was definitely the one crying in the Uber leaving yesterday …
Im so glad she’s growing up to be more independent and especially more outgoing and HAPPY- but also, again, I miss her!
We truly had the best trip- saw “aunt Anita” - saw lots more of Pittsburgh and spoiled Daphne on a shopping spree! And her show was AMAZING and so fun!
Til next time!!!
