michaeldthomasRemember how we were worried about her making new friends at school? Twice this week, Caitlin came home with artwork from a new friend in her 2nd Grade class. Cait's friend decided to draw pictures of Caitlin's Make-A-Wish trip. The first one showed Belle at Cinderella's Castle and the second one showed Harry Potter at Hogwarts. Both were welcoming Caitlin with a wave and a smile. :-)
Last Sunday, we took Caitlin to meet another celebrity. This time it was legendary wrestler Mick Foley. Also known as The Hardcore Legend, Mick wrestled as Cactus Jack, Dude Love, and Mankind. He still occasionally wrestles, but now he's better known as a bestselling author. You might also know him as the Senior Asskicker on The Daily Show.
When we found out he was signing his new memoir at the Barnes & Noble in the fufu mall in Oak Brook, we arranged a day trip with our friends![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
truepenny and mirrorthaw who are also Mick Foley fans.
We all had a lovely time. Mick was funny and intelligent. He gave a great reading, and made sure to meet Caitlin first (it's like we still have the Make-A-Wish magic lanyard). He talked to her about her recent Make-A-Wish experience. It turns out that Mick and his family have worked closely with Give Kids the World through the years. We chatted about the awesomeness of the Animal Kingdom Lodge, and then the B&N staff took a quick picture of us with Mick.
Sadly, Cait's head was down for the photo.
As we waited formirrorthaw, Mick made sure to keep waving and smiling at Cait in between fans.
After the signing, we had a lovely dinner and a mall walk.rarelylynne even found a dress at H&M.
