What fun!!!!

Sorry I didn't write yesterday, computer problems.  All fixed now.  Today was so much fun, it was awesome!  Disney really did not come through with "magic" for Mickey, but regular people did.  We took the bus to go to Downtown Disney and it was pretty crowded.  As soon as people saw that Mickey didn't  have a seat, two women jumped up and offered their seat!  And you know Mickey, she announced "I'm Michelle".  We then explained that we were sisters on our first vacation together for her 50th birthday and you wouldn't believe it the entire bus started singing Happy Birthday to her!  Then the bus driver made an announcement.  "If I could have your attention please.  I have an announcement." And then,God  bless her SHE started singing a song to Mickey, kinda like an army song - something like "sound off, 1, 2, 3 4 and the entire bus caught on to that and we all ended up joining in!  The look on her face was priceless!  I almost started crying, it was so precious.  But you know how Mickey would have reacted to that, so once again I had to stuff my feelings and give thanks to the good Lord for people like us in the world.  It was a beautiful experience.  A woman gave Mickey a Mickey Mouse pair of shoelaces.  Another person exchanged a pin with her.  Just beautiful and that was just the bus ride!  She has been nothing but pure gold on this trip.  And she loves us so much that I know Mom would be so proud.  Just as we are.  You know what a people person Mick is. The freedom she has to say hi to whoever she wants and wave at everybody just fills us with such tenderness for her.  Babs was with her when a group of at least 15 people, assorted ages, walked by and they ALL said "Good Morning" to hr.  Mickey of course, said good morning to them.  She turned to Babs and said" Goodie, They  all like me". So important to her.  It is what she strives for. That's it in a nutshell.  It's all about loving each other. How can she make it look so easy?  I am so humbled.
