Namesake

My mother named me after her best friend, Erica. They were campers and then worked on staff together. When I was young, we went to visit her at some hotel - I don’t remember where. The first thing she said was that I could jump on the bed. I jumped so high and landed so hard that I knocked the wind out of myself - I remember gasping for air on the bed through giggles.
