As I promised MA KING's

First and foremost for all of you that do not know "Wandering Girl" AKA TK She is one of those Special friends that one runs across in life and thinks of that person from then on. As is the case of TK and our family. We have loved that girl from the minute we met her and my family here in CT fell in love with her at our wedding so much so that she went and visited them in CT. Anna and I have talked and wondered how can one person be THAT fantastic. Well we now know that the apple truly did not fall far from the tree. We went to TK's parents house (who is now forever known as Ma and Pa King)and after OMIT we were all in kind of a foul mood. We stepped foot onto the King ranch and INSTANTLY were welcomed. The King's opened up their hearts, house, their pool and most of all their arms for a much needed hug (not to mention Ma king's FABULOUS cooking)We were instantly welcomed into the King family and I truly believe that they meant it. Which in our case after being shunned OMIT meant the world. With in 10 minutes of walking into the door Ma King had a beer in our hands and was making all of us hamburgers. She then showed us the ranch and in my kids eyes the most important place the in ground pool. After a nice swim Ma king pulled out this HUGE basket and had gifts for every child in our family (Abby had gone ahead with my sister the day before on a plane) She then showed us the beautiful ranch and then played therapist to all the individuals that needed it and we then talked about Amanda and TK like they were our sisters (Even though we had never met Amanda) Pa King was soon home and even though he had MAJOR surgery not long ago on his neck he made us some ribs that were out of this world!! I guess the purpose of this post is to just tell everyone, all our friends and family, that down in South Carolina about an hour and a half off the highway is the most incredible family we have ever met. Thank you TK for being a friend and introducing us to your family. You know that you are always a part of our family no matter where we are in AK, or CT. Ma and PA king I can say nothing but Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting us and showing me once again that family is the most important thing at a point in my life when I really needed to be shown it. We will never forget the generosity and acceptance that you showed us. We will be back and next time with Abby. We now know the reason as to why TK is so special and affects every ones life who she comes in contact with. She learned it from you! Thank you again and we love we will be back. Love all of Us
