I think it's crazy what a small world it is... Rory's cousin ran into a lady I know (her name is Trish), but haven't seen for at least 15 years, at Primary Children's Hospital yesterday.  She said to tell me hello, so I decided to look her up on Facebook.  It was so neat to see how her life has changed and that she has a daughter now and how her nieces and nephews have grown.  Her mom, Ann Martinez was my babysitter from the time I was born until I was in the 4th grade.  She was an amazing little mexican lady who I have so many fond memories of.  She passed away a few years ago and I think of her often.  Trish, her daughter, was always very kind to me and although she was an adult and I was a young child we became friends (at least from my perspective as a child).  Anyway, just yesterday I was thinking of Ann, picturing her standing at her stove and sitting in her chair and Dalaena (Rory's cousin) called to tell me she had ran into Trish.  I just don't think it's a coincidence, it was so great to see pictures of Ann and she will always have a very special place in my heart.
