My Maria Blanket

I met Maria in college. She was a freshman when I was a junior. She and her friends were fun and crazy (think Spice Girls lip syncs in the dorms). Maria and I were both Resident Assistants the next year, and we became fast friends. We loved going on walks to our favorite muffin shop, doing Tae Bo, playing guitar, heading to Huntington Beach for Wahoo's Fish Tacos, laying out in the sun munching on Cookie Crisp, and "doing parades" on campus where we would blast Mambo #5 on my car stereo and wave at everyone as we drove by and laughed hysterically.  She was my maid of honor. We live far apart now, but I keep her picture on my fridge and always look forward to our talks. She sent us a special treat the other day...a baby blanket for Brock that she made. We call it his Maria Blanket, and I know when he meets My Maria, he will love her just as much as his mommy does :)
