A post from Amanda! Well, sorry folks (if anyone even still checks this thing) I have no computer at my house and when I have time to use the computer at Jason's it's usually rushed. Anyways, I'm still rushed but I thought since Heather posted her children-post I'd post something somewhat related.
So this weekend was yet another marriage. Matthew and Christa Robinson are currently in Jamaica lucky poops. Anyways, so we went up to Ashcroft and it was beautiful, absolutely picture-perfect weather, but not temperature perfect... probably hit about 35 or more during the ceremony. At least the pictures will look hot as in Hawt. ... right, quick post... ok fast forward ... I stayed the night with my mom in a motel and we were meeting a lady for breakfast at 8. So my mom opens the door to the parking lot outside our room and what does she find? A baby in a stroller. She got my attention quickly with her "there's a baby here!" comment, so I came to take a look. Sure enough, the cutest little girl was looking at us with the biggest most beautiful eyes... she was lying in a stroller that had a pink tag on it that said "delivery" I half jokingly asked if maybe it was a delivery for me? Could the stork have dropped this off for me? We stood there playing peekaboo for probably about 5 or 10 minutes, still with no sign of people anywhere. I asked my mom what she thought Jason would think if I showed up at home saying "Look what I found!! Can I keep it??" I told my mom about learning in my courses that in places like Belgium people leave their babies in strollers outside stores and whatnot, with no worries at all. Anyways, my mom and the friend we were meeting for breakfast who had arrived and was as astounded as we were decided to go ask the office whose van it was that that baby was beside, maybe for some clues. When they were gone a woman came walking down the stairs from the upper floor. I asked her "is she yours?" and the lady, not looking overly concerned asked if she was bothering me... I said no, I was just wondering where her family was... Just then my mom and our friend came walking back and we asked where they were from.. sure enough, they were from Austria!! My textbooks actually taught me something!! They proceeded to inform the lady about the dangers of leaving a baby unattended like that, which I think freaked her out a bit, but that's probably not such a bad thing.
All in all, I was a tiny bit disappointed that the stork didn't send me that special delivery, but I guess that's probably a good thing... I'm not on that baby bandwagon quite yet.
